When I try to programmatically access a word object model, I get an error no document is active. This appears to be because I am loading the document as not visible using Word automation, and I have to keep it invisible. How would I code the open macro so that it does nothing in this case?

A lot of them like to copy & paste from Word, which means their input often comes with a plethora of associated MS inline formatting. I can't just get rid of <span whatever> as TinyMCE relies on the span tag for some of i...
