>I have a piece of code that produces financial statements via a Word mailmerge. It works fine except that it brings up a printer dialog box before printing. As we'd like to run this as part of an overnight batch, this is rather annoying! Any suggestions to remove the dialog would be welcomed.

Try:
WITH .Documents[1]
     .PageSetup.FirstPageTray = 2  && each statement will only ever be one page long
     .MailMerge.OpenDataSource(THIS.cStatementMergeDataFile)
     .MailMerge.Destination = 0	&& File
     .MailMerge.Execute()
ENDWITH
