Merely clarifying that the two are unrelated which you still left as
ambiguous. Perhaps it could be stated differently.

If you want to discuss it, my email isn't hidden.

I agree that my incomplete explanation could be misleading to someone who
has
never used late binding before. The explanation on resolving the problem
the
OP encountered is still valid. I will ensure that the next post I make
within this board is more complete, so there is no confusion on the OP's
part. Once you pointed out the weakness in my explanation on the first
post,
what exactly was the second one for? Just for the general, I'm right, you
are wrong? Is that the normal behaviour and attitude of MVP's? I'm here
on
a volunteer basis just as you are trying to help people.

I guess if there would be problems regardless of whether you used late or
early binding, then yes, I guess it wasn't just unclear, but misleading.

That's exactly what I was referring to. Sorry if the explanation
wasn't
clear enough.

Why do you think latebinding would have problems with older versions.
That
is half the reason to use latebinding. What would cause problems is
if you
use features not supported in the older version - but that has
nothing to do
with latebinding.

Forgot to explain why:-)
When using late binding you don't need to use the reference at all.
VB will
automatically pick up the most recent associated object based on
the
createObject().

Have you thought about using late binding instead of early
binding? It's
very easy to implement, but could cause problems if the user has
an older
version.

Just change all your DIM references for the word object to
Object.

ex.
Dim Doc as word.document
To
Dim do as object

Hey--Is there any way to permanently select certain references

that they would like to reference word...
