[AccessD] Getting a handle to hidden word instance

I am using a mail merge system that occasionally leaves Word open but
hidden.  The next time the mail merge tries to run it can't since word is
open and holding a file open that the mail merge function is trying to
create.  Thus I need to get a handle on any open word instance, and
hopefully see if it is hidden.  If so assume it is mine and close it.  Is
there any way to do such a thing in VBA code?

Thanks,
