Word Automation
I encountered the problem described inhttp://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=188546
BUG: Starting Word Manually Uses Same Instance as Automation
Now the KB article describes the work around for this problem being the following:
Set temp = CreateObject("Word.Application")
Set wrdApp = CreateObject("Word.Application")
temp.Quit
The problem is the note underneath the workaround: NOTE: This workaround does not work when a document is launcheddirectly through the Windows Explorer, typically when someonedouble-clicks a document. For me that is a hugh problem because it must be absolutely possiblethat users do that and that my application keeps on working!Conclusion: is there a way to avoid that Word takes the same instanceas automation does?
