Hi Friends,

From my application, i'm opening a document in Word, and that document should be in active till my application is getting closed...........

But whenever i open any other word document by double clicking on it, that document is being opened in the same window with i opened thru my application. Means the document which is opened thru my application is closed and the other document is opened in the same window.........

Can i restrict this.........if i try to open the other word document by doublc clicking on that, that shuld be opened in another instance.......can it be possible.......?

It's very urgent........pls let me know, if there is any solution....

Thanks.........

Since word has an MDI interface, it basically opens another document...your document is still there, but is hidden. You should be able to access that document from your application itself. I am not certain about the exact syntax, but I do know it is possible.
