Opening WordViewer 1

[sfenx]

What's the code to open a Word document using WordViewer?

 

[HermanvLimbeek]

I start the powerpoint viewer like this:

strDoc = "Sample.Doc"
strExec = strPath & "ppview32.exe /a " & strDoc
taskID = Shell(strExec, vbMaximizedFocus)

If you substitute ppview32.exe with wordview.exe, I thik it'll work. However, I haven't tried it.

Thanks a lot Herman, it works as you wrote.

Is there a way to make the WordViewer (or another app.) appear in my MDIform (as an MDIchild)?
