I have been battling this error all day.  I am doing Word automation, merging a document, then 
running a splitter to split the merged documents into individual documents and so forth.  It runs 
the first time but not the second or subsequent.

knowledge base article 189618 discusses the solution which is to fully path all references to all 
objects of the word document.  IOW you cannot simply say ActiveDocument, you must say 
MyWordObj.ActiveDocument, MyWordObj.Selection and so forth.

What a ROYAL PITA!!!

After finding and fixing ALL such references (from code borrowed off the internet) the thing finally 
works.

All darned day!
