When i am trying to open the word document from VB using objword.documents.open("filename") it is throwing an error saying that
"Word cannot start the convertor mswrd632" . What to do about this. When i am running the same form on a diff machine, word is opening the document. Urgent.
The error you are getting is a Word error, not a VB error. Looking at the error, I can see you are trying to open a Word 6 document (I do believe that is wordpad, or wordpad is compatible with it). If during the Office Setup haven't selected the appropriate conversion filters, Word will not be able to open this document. Run the Office Setup, choose add/remove, and select the conversion filter. after the install, it should work.
