Suppress dialogs in Word automation app

J

John G.

I have been given a research task: To find methods of suppressing the
display of Word dialog boxes during unattended batch processing of Word
documents on a server.

Documents are created on client machines (XP-SP2 & Word 2003), then uploaded
to the server (Win Server 2003 & Word 2007). A C# ASP.NET application opens
a Word document, then saves it as a PDF to another location. When there is
a problem with the document, Word throws up a dialog box asking for some
user action. This essentially hangs the application. Any thoughts are
welcome.

Thanks.
John G.
