oWord.Application.Run("Macro1")

>I looked at running a macro, as that would seem to be an easy way to accomplish this. The VBE help on automated macros was sketchy at best on how to pass parameters. It says there are up to 30 parameters that can be passed but didn't go into any real detail as to how this would be accomplished. In Tamar's book, it says that unless you want to transfer information between the two applications, running a macro can sometimes make sense.
