Word Instance visible when automating

E

Eric Margheim

I have some VC++ code that uses

app.CreateDispatch("Word.Application") to do Office Automation

This works fine. But recently on just a couple systems, this call will
bring up a Word instance visible. It should be hidden. So there must be
something on the system that is different. I have another part in my code
that uses an embedded ActiveX control in IE to edit Office documents. I
don't actually make the call to open Word the control does. The same
anomaly occurs with this control so I'm pretty sure it has nothing to do
with the code itself.

Anyone ever seen this and know what setting or file version or something is
causing this?

Thanks much
