Hi,

I have written some code to open create a word object and save a word
document as html.

THis works fine, except that the document flashes up on the screen briefly.
I have set the visible propery to false, is there something else I need to do?

The code below is late bound, but I get the same effect with early binding.

Any suggestions very gratefully received.

Steve.

Dim strWordFileName as string = "myfilename.doc"
Dim strHTMLFileName as string ="myfilename.htm"

Dim MSWord As Object
MSWord = CreateObject("Word.Application")
MSWord.Visible = False
MSWord.Documents.Open(FileName:=strWordFileName, ReadOnly:=True)
MSWord.ActiveDocument.SaveAs(FileName:=strHTMLFileName, FileFormat:=10)
MSWord.Documents.Close()
MSWord.Quit()
MSWord = Nothing
