Disabled Items ?

G

Greg Wright

I have a Word Automation engine written in VB6 that does various things with
Word documents. Sometime it will be passed a corrupt document and
Winword.exe will crash typically placing that file name in the Disabled
Items list. Sometime later another document with the same file name gets
passed to the application and it fails because the file name is listed in
Disabled Items. So every week or so I need to logon as the user that the
application runs under and Enable everything in Disabled Items
(Help-About-Disabled Items). It would be great if I could programatically
clear Disabled Items. Does anyone know where the list is kept?

I'm in the same situation. If someone could please direct a way to go, it'd be great.

I would suggest asking in one of the Word news groups, such as
microsoft.public.word.vba.general.
