    User Automation to close Word Document and return focus to A

    My Access database controls a Mail Merge Job in Word. After generating the
    data, Access opens the Word document with these lines of code in a module:

    Set objWord = GetObject("G:\Access Projects\MyWordDoc.doc", "Word.Document")
    objWord.Application.Visible = True
    objWord.RunAutoMacro wdAutoOpen

    In the Word document the Sub AutoOpen Prints the mail merge job. My AutoOpen
    code ends with ActiveDocument.Close wdDoNotSaveChanges. Unfortunately, I am
    left looking at Word with no open document. I want control returned to the
    Access database form where I was before. Suggestions appreciated. Someone in


    the Word Programming Community referred me here. Thank you.
