Code:

---

Private Sub cmdEnter_Click()
With GetObject("C:\Users\home\Documents\AT Electrical\Invoices\InvoiceTemplate.docx")

        .tables(1).Cell(1, 2).Range.Text = frmwriteinvoice.txtinvoicenumber.Value
        .tables(1).Cell(3, 2).Range.Text = frmwriteinvoice.txtinvoicedate.Value
        .tables(1).Cell(5, 2).Range.Text = frmwriteinvoice.cboinvoicejobnumber.Value

what does happen?
do you get error or no result? does your code freeze?

It opens but it is hidden.

it doest appear to do anything,no eroor msg or freezing.

did you test if it is working, but not visible, as suggested above?
did you test to save, then see if the document is updated?

        .tables(1).Cell(3, 2).Range.Text = txtinvoicedate.Text
        .tables(1).Cell(5, 2).Range.Text = cboinvoicejobnumber.Value
        .windows(1).visible=true
