Losing MainDocumentType on Open()
Hey guys, I have a mail merge document that is set to Directory for the Main
Document Type. If I close it and manually reopen it, it stays as a "Directory" document, but if I open it through automation (i.e. oWord.Documents.Open("C:\SomeDirectory\SomeDirecto ryDocument.doc")) the oWord.ActiveDocument.MailMerge.MainDocumentType = -1 as soon as you do the Open() command and then it gets set to 0 once you call the OpenDataSource(). How can I open the document through automation and keep the document type that the user originally saved it with? Thanks for your help, Jerry |
