Hi,

I wrote a macro to open a file as Read Only, so normally even if that file is allready open it should open as Read Only no ??

Now when the file is allready open and I run the macro I stil get that stupid notification "Open as read Only - Notify - Cancel"

Does anyone now how to bypass this annoying notification ??

Here is the macro

Application.DisplayAlerts = wdAlertsNone

Documents.Open FileName:="d2.doc", ConfirmConversions:=False, ReadOnly:= _
True, AddToRecentFiles:=False, PasswordDocument:="", PasswordTemplate:="" _
, Revert:=True, WritePasswordDocument:="", WritePasswordTemplate:="", _
Format:=wdOpenFormatAuto

PS: It is only on the Office 2000 version, with all other versions I don't get this message

Hope you can help me out
