PB7, Word, and XP

[DavidB]

I have just taken over the support for an application that uses OLE,
to open word, and generate documents.

The application has been written in PB7.

What the application does, and where it is going wrong is.

It checks to see if Word is running, and if not starts it.
It then loads the document the user has asked for in to word.

This is where things go wrong.

Before moving to XP, a new instance of word was open with the new
document loaded correctly.

Under XP the document is merged over the top of an existing instacnce
of word, and the document that was already open.

This seems to be only a problem under the XP OS environment.

Does anyone have any ideas, on how to stop this from happening.

No Errors are shown, either by PB, Word, or XP.
