Thanks, Peter.
I don't know how I missed that post.
Actually, right before me End If statement I added in:
'close the orginal file
objWord.Close wdDoNotSaveChanges
This worked well too.
Thanks for your help!

I am using Access to populate a document using MailMerge in Word. My letter
comes out fine. Once the end-user reviews the letter and saves it and closes
it, the template appears on the screen and asks the user if s/he would like
to save changes to it. I would like for the template to not appear at all, as
I do not want the endusers to have the ability to make changes to it!
Is there some code I can attach to the template to do this?
Also, I am pretty new to VB, so please be as descriptive as possible 
Thanks!
