I referenced Microsoft word and even started a new Macro with the following case for word files...
Private Sub Workbook_Open()

Dim WRD As Word.Application

Set WRD = New Word.Application
WRD.Documents.Open ("c:\Baseline\EC - JIT TRAINING - July 25 2005 - v1.0.doc")

WRD.ActiveDocument.PageSetup
With WRD.ActiveDocument.PageSetup
.LeftFooter = "&Z&F"
End With
WRD.ActiveDocument.Save
RD.Quit
Set WRD = Nothing
End Sub


And I get an invalid property use message for the ActiveDocument.PageSetup code...
So Essentiallly Excel is still having trouble opening the Word Document..
Any suggestions?
