running Excel 2003 Word 2003

Got a button in excel cell that opens up a document in word and then brings up the print document option automatically.

My problem is if they click Cancel I get an error, Im sure the way i've coded it is not quite right but im trying to teach myself from scraps of code etc

Trying to get my head around the error handler bit but just get confused

This is my VB in Excel

Private Sub CommandButton2_Click()
Set WordObj = CreateObject("Word.Application")

'location of file
WordObj.Documents.Open ("C:\Home\Bill Payment.doc")

WordObj.Visible = True

Set WordObj = Nothing

End Sub



Then I added this VB in the Word Document

Private Sub Document_Open()
Application.Dialogs(wdDialogFilePrint).Show
On Error Resume Next
wrddoc.Close
wrdApp.Quit

End Sub


Anyone willing to help a newbie :)
