Server Busy

From Access 2003 how can I determine if Word is busy and/or displaying a
dialog box?

If you have Word open with say a File Save dialog box and then from Access
with OLE you try to write a new document you end up with constant flashing
of the Server Busy window. The flashing seems to be caused for the Server
Busy window being closed and re-opened continously. The only thing for the
user to do is switch to Word and close the current dialog.

My users get too freaked out by the flashing so I'd like to determine if a
dialog box is displaying before I OLE to word. Any clues?
