You are presumably using Outlook without the option to send files immediately so they are accummulated in the outbox, where you are processing them. The problem with this is that there may be other unrelated e-mail messages pending in the outbox that would screw up your process.

The easiest way to keep the Word window out of the way is to minimize it

wdApp.Application.WindowState = 2
Do this after declaring wdApp immediately before
On Error Goto 0
Dialogs(80)
is exactly the same command as
Dialogs(wdDialogFileOpen)
but the numeric equivalent is used to allow late binding to Word (there is no need to set a reference to Word in Tools > References when using the code I posted).

The probable reason your GetFile function doesn't work for some is that they don't have Word declared as a reference in their Outlook VBA editors. This is why I prefer to use Late Binding to other office apps. It is harder to program with late binding, but it improves compatibility. GetFile is the better option so I have modified it to work from my version of the original code. It doesn't need yet another instance of Word as you already have Word opened, so use that one.
