| As always, more informationa and/or the code you are using currently would be quite helpful. (Are you using the Word object library? Are you using the SHELL command? API calls? etc)If you are using the Word object library, then you simply set the ReadOnly argument to True when you open the document: Dim w As New Word.Application Dim d As Word.Document w.Visible = True Set d = w.Documents.Open("filename.doc", , True)- Jeff |

| Sorry, I forgot.Thanks Jeff for your quick reply.First I tried to use shell command, but after I read your post, maybe I'll use Word Object because it more easier to use.Does Word object for all version of Office same ? Do I need to include it on my package when implementing it ?Thank's,Mike |
