HELP!: "Object doesn't support this property or method"

[Otis Hunter]

I have been fighting with this for days and your expert help is
needed! Below is the code I am executing which results with "Object
doesn't support this property or method". The error is occuring on
the "With Me.OLEObject" line (By the way, I haven't found
documentation which explains what the "With" clause is suppose to
do?). I am trying to extract a Word document(OLE object) from an
Access database, for each record in the table, and save it as a Word
Document. The 4th field of each record is a OLE object type.

This is a continuation of my recent post "Exporting/Extracting an
Access OLE object (Word document) to a Word document file" in several
newsgroups.

Thank you for your help!

My Code:

dim conn
set conn = CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
conn.Open "provider=microsoft.jet.oledb.4.0;data
source=C:\work\srvScripts.mdb"

dim rs
dim NewDoc
set rs = CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset")
'rs.Open "select * from tblTemp", conn
rs.Open "tblTemp", conn

'rs.BOF and rs.EOF = True means that there is no records

rs.MoveFirst
while not rs.EOF
set srv = rs.Fields(1)
set ttl = rs.Fields(2)
NewDoc = "c:\tst\" & srv & "." & date() & "." & ttl & ".doc"
' WScript.Echo NewDoc
With Me.OLEObject
.Class = "Word.Document"
.Verb = acOLEVerbOpen
.Action = acOLEActivate
.Object.Application.Documents.Item(1).SaveAs NewDoc
.Object.Application.Quit
.Action = acOLEClose
End With

rs.MoveNext
wend

With Me.OLEObject

The problem is that forms and reports, there is no such prop? If there were
it would likely be an Object type, so you should dim a variable of the
right type and then assign it, rather than relying on With to do the work,
as that will take longer.

Any chance you, or anyone else, could show me an example of what you
are talking about or any other solution (I am 1 week new with VBScript
and fairly new to the windows OS)? Any example code will be greatly
appreciated!!!

Respectfully,
