I didn't get any nibbles on this while it was
posted on the Word CNG so I'm hoping I'll have
better luck here.

I Have an Excel worksheet containing a hyperlink
to a Word document that I want to be able to
quickly look at but then return to the Excel
worksheet. I Have limited access (made invisible)
to several command bar options on the worksheet
for "semi-security" reasons. Problem is that when
I first open the Word Document, all of the
command bars currently visible on it get
"carried back" to my Excel worksheet, making
those command bars once again visible there.
What's the best way to hide command bars on the Word
document when it first opens so it makes them
inaccessible or at least does not make those
command bars visible when I hyperlink back to
the Excel worksheet? Really need to work this
out soon so any help will be greatly appreciated.
