In my workbook, I have one sheet with high level instructions for the users.
On that sheet. there is a button to open a Word Document with more detailed
instructions for the user to read. It works fairly well and opens quickly.

The issue is once the Word document is open, it is not useable, almost like
it is frozen for 5 to 10 seconds. Once the initial "frozen" period is over,
the user is able to scroll or move through the document.

The code for this button is below:

Dim WApp As Word.Application
Dim WDoc As Word.Document
Set WApp = CreateObject("Word.Application")

Dim ThisPath As String
Dim ThisFile As String

ThisPath = "\\Vs999\public\Accounts\Originals\"
ThisFile = "Instructions - Admin Office.doc"

Set WDoc = WApp.Documents.Open(ThisPath & ThisFile)

WApp.Visible = True

Set WApp = Nothing
Set WDoc = Nothing

Any suggestions or help you can provide to resolve / reduce that waiting
period would be greatly resolved. This the first time I have tried to open a
Word document from Excel. Thanks again......
