I've been making use of Caesar's ability to use a custom HEADER.DOC file to provide a company logo and title in the header of Caear reports.

For the most part, it works fine. But, every so often, I get an error message saying "Failed to create object". and I then can't generate a word based output.

I stumbled upon a solution - go to the system directory, open the HEADER.DOC file and then close it again. Once I go through this little "fix" then the word output does just fine again. Bizarre, but that's Microsoft for you. FWIW, I'm using Word 2002 where I work.
