Open Word doc through app.path?

[jandrade15]

hello all-

I have the following code to open a word template in the app.path directory....

Dim appWord As Object
Dim strDoc As String
    strDoc = " & app.path & Labels1.dot"
    Set appWord = CreateObject("Word.Application")
    appWord.Documents.Open strDoc
    appWord.Visible = True

I get an error message that it cant find the document????

did I code this correctly? Thanks for all your help in advanced!!!
