Ok then...What I am trying to do is open a bunch of Word
97 files and save them in Word 95 format. The thing is,
some Word 95 documents have datasources linked to them,
and when I encounter this case, I want to remove the
datasource from the document and save it in Word 95 and
then close it. How can I stop the "open data source"
dialog box from opening?
thanks!
