Open ReadOnlyRecommended=True Word doc for write access through VBA

Jon Furman

Hello everyone,

I posted this previously in the microsoft.public.office.developer.vba but
haven't gotten any bites yet so I thought I'd post here and see if I had any
better luck.

I've run into a tricky issue. I'm working on a batch process that needs to
programatically open a series of documents for write access that have thier
ReadOnlyRecommended property set toTrue. I see in the Word VBA documentation
that setting ReadOnly=False on the open command won't open these for write.
So my question is, can I force these to open with write access through VBA?

Thanks in advance.
