Toolbar disappears if using Fill-in when merging!

Using Office 2002, I use Word to produce merged letters and documents out of
Access (using a nifty routine called Super Easy Word Merge, by Albert Kallal).
Everything is absolutely fine unless I include a Fill-in field in the
template. If I do, when the document merges it has no toolbars whatever at
the top and I cannot do anything at all with it, except close. Cannot print
it, save it, whatever...
Ideas, please????
Many thanks

You'll need to contact Albert Kallal about his routine. Apparently, the Fill-in
fields are blocking the complete initialization of the Word application, and
it's not finishing when the Fill-in fields are finished. I'm not familiar with
his code, but in a general sort of way, this kind of problem can sometimes be
avoided by changing the order in which the Word.application.Activate and
Word.application.Visible commands are executed.
