Opening an already existant Word document with an Excel Macro
 

Hi,

I need to open a specific Word document while running an Excel macro. Up
until now, I've been able to open a new document in Word :

Application.ActivateMicrosoftApp xlMicrosoftWord


Any ideas on how to accomplish that?
Thanks!

Dim oWord as Object
Dim oDoc as Object

Set oWord = CreateObject("Word.Application")
oWord.Visible = True

Set oDoc = oWord.Documents.Open("C:\personal\bob\personal\CV - RP
(short).doc")
