VB6.0 and Word

If you're controlling word with VB - I would have thought you could load the doc into word and hide the commandbars and menu bar *before* making that copy of word visible?<br>
<br>
Did I misunderstand you?<br>

Here goes the routine code:<br>
<br>
Public Sub AbreDocumentoWord(Documento As String)<br>
<br>
Dim A As New Word.Application<br>
<br>
A.Visible = True<br>
A.Documents.Open FileName:=Documento<br>
<br>
A.WindowState = wdWindowStateMaximize<br>
<br>
'Desabilita barras de ferramentas<br>
A.CommandBars("Standard").Visible = False<br>
A.CommandBars("Tables and Borders").Visible = False<br>
A.CommandBars("Formatting").Visible = False<br>
A.CommandBars("Database").Visible = False<br>
