Thanks Bryan. If I wanted to how would I make Word 2002 the default when
Word 97 still there?

If you use Word.Application, you get the default version of Word.

To get a specific version, you need to use:

Set oAppWord = GetObject(, "Word.Application.8") ' Word 97
Set oAppWord = GetObject(, "Word.Application.9") ' Word 2000
Set oAppWord = GetObject(, "Word.Application.10") ' Word 2002

Same for CreateObject if you are creating the word instance
