Excel 9

H

I'm using the CreateObject Command in Excel to launch Word and execute a mailmerge. I keep getting the following error msg if there are more than 100 records to merge

"Microsoft Excel is waiting for another application to complete an OLE action

From what I understand, this message appears when I try to run code in excel before the server has finished executing code in Word. I've checked the code but I don't execute code in Excel before closing Word. Is there anyway that I can suppress this message? Also, why is it only happening when there are more than 100 records? Is it purely a server issue?
