Since my question involves both Word and the Windows envionment, I cross
posted to a Word vba group, which you might have noticed if you had
looked at the To line.

To activate means to bring a minimized or inactive window to the fore,
so that it becomes the active window. This is different from opening a
window or a program, which means starting up a program that is closed.

What do you mean by "activate Word"?
Have you tried asking this on a Word or Office forum, since it
appears to be a Word question, not a Windows question?

I would be great to find a way to activate Word without starting a
new Word instance. I think I asked about this a year or two ago,
and didn't get anywhere. Any ideas?
