question regarding code to open word doc from excel

[ABabeNChrist]

I have Windows XP with Office 2007 and I’m using this type of code to open different word documents, I was wondering if this code is also compatible with other operating systems like Vista and Windows 7. I would think they are, I just want to be sure. And as long as both the excel workbook and word docm are located within same folder it should work correct.

Code: Select all

Set wordapp = CreateObject("Word.Application")
Set worddoc = wordapp.Documents.Open(ThisWorkbook.Path & "\Report folder\report part 1.docm")
    wordapp.Visible = True

This code does not depend on the version of Windows, it should work in any version as long as the user has either Office 2007 (or later), or an earlier version together with the Microsoft Office Compatibility Pack for Word, Excel, and PowerPoint 2007 file formats.

I was hoping that
