Everything seems to work extremely well ... except that I would like to keep
the Word application hidden.
I have inserted :
WD.Application.ScreenUpdating = False
WD.Application.Visible = False
prior to the line which opens the document (see below)
But after the printer dialog box is closed the Word application pops up
during the printing process
I would like to prevent this happening ... Have you any suggestions

........................
Dim WD As Object
Set WD = CreateObject("Word.Application")
WD.Application.DisplayAlerts = wdAlertsNone

WD.Application.ScreenUpdating = False ' ......... This is
probably superfluous
WD.Application.Visible = False

WD.Documents.Open (ThisWorkbook.Path & "\PrivList Labels.doc")
If WD.ActiveDocument.MailMerge.State < wdMainAndDataSource Then
WD.ActiveDocument.MailMerge.OpenDataSource _
Name:=ThisWorkbook.Path & "\PrivList.csv", _
LinkToSource:=True
End If
WD.ActiveDocument.MailMerge.Destination = wdSendToPrinter
WD.ActiveDocument.MailMerge.Execute
WD.ActiveDocument.Close SaveChanges:=wdDoNotSaveChanges
WD.Application.DisplayAlerts = wdAlertsAll
WD.Quit SaveChanges:=wdDoNotSaveChanges
Set WD = Nothing
