Craig,

Thanks for your e-mail.  It is stopping at the Open command - it opens Word
but then doesn't load the first document.

I'm running a macro on a bunch of Word documents that sets the paper trays
for printing.

Thanks again for your help.

Inge

I'm not sure I can help, but I'm interested in what you're doing. However,
you didn't provide details of the failure(s); please do so.
