VBScript problem

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.basics (More info?)

I'm running Word Macros from VBScript scripts. I create a Word application
object ,
set Visible to false, and open the Word document that contains my macros. Mo
windows open while the script runs the macros. Once all the processing is
done, the driver script executes "appWord.Documents.Close()".
THEN an empty Word window visibly opens and remains there until I manually
close it.

What's going on??? I'm automating processes to run reports every night and
don't want this window hanging around. Is there another command I should be
using to get rid of the Word session? (I do the same thing with Excel
("appXL.Workbooks.Close()" ) and it works fine.)

P.S.: Is there a better forum for this question?
