Peter,

Are you talking about a macro? Where do I find information about the command
line options?

Word understands a number of command line options, but not "an input
file".
So you will need to write some Word VBA that grabs the command line from
Windows (e.g. using a win32 routine) and gets the file pathname and
anything
else you need, and proceed from there.

Hi all,

I need to start Word from cmd supplying a merge template and and imput
file.
Is it possible to submit those parameters so Word will start and
automatically perform the merge without user intervention?

Thanks,
Claus
