Quitting Word without dialogs

F

Fred Goldman

I have a vb script that does a few find/changes and then closes Word. The
problem I am unning into is every time I choose a file from the server when
the script tries to close Word I get this dialog that says it can't save
Normal.dot because it is in use.

Is there any way to avoid this dialog?

Here is how the script ends:

objWord.ActiveWindow.Close(True):eek:bjWord.Quit

If you go to Tools > Options > Save > then UNcheck Prompt to Save Normal
Template, does that help?

This is rarely a good idea, as it allows Word to automatically save changes,
that may be unwanted, to the normal template. The users of the document may
not welcome that.
