VBA ActiveDocument Concerns / Alternatives? - ms-access

Question

I'm using VBA in access to open up a protected word template, fill in the data, and then re-protect it.... this way, if the database system goes down, the word template can still be used manually in its protected state.
I have just started using VBA and in this line:
If ActiveDocument.ProtectionType <> wdNoProtection Then
ActiveDocument.Unprotect Password:=""
End If
I'm concerned that whilst running the code in access, that if the user opens up another word document and makes it the focus, that it will occidentally get protected instead of the other. How do I keep active focus on the document I'm writing to... or do I need to reference my document somehow using WordApp.protect (or something similar that works)
Private Sub Command0_Click()
Dim WordApp As Word.Application
Dim strDatabasePath As String
Dim strTemplatePath As String
Dim strTemplate As String
Dim strJobTitle As String
Dim strFile As String
strFile1 = "testcoc.dotx"
strFile2 = "testcoc-private.dotx"
strDatabasePath = CurrentProject.Path & "\"
strTemplatePath = "\templates\"
strTemplate = strDatabasePath & strTemplatePath & strFile2
On Error Resume Next
Set WordApp = GetObject(, "Word.Application")
If Err.Number <> 0 Then
Set WordApp = CreateObject("Word.Application")
End If
On Error GoTo ErrHandler
WordApp.Visible = True
WordApp.WindowState = wdWindowStateMaximize
WordApp.Documents.Add Template:=strTemplate, NewTemplate:=True
'strJobTitle = DLookup("JobTitle", "Job", "JobNum = " & [JobType])
strJobTitle = DLookup("JobTitle", "Job", "JobNum = 'J0456'")
With WordApp.Selection
'Unprotect the file
If ActiveDocument.ProtectionType <> wdNoProtection Then
ActiveDocument.Unprotect Password:=""
End If
.Goto what:=wdGoToBookmark, Name:="bm_0_4"
.TypeText strJobTitle
End With
'Reprotect the document.
'If ActiveDocument.ProtectionType = wdNoProtection Then
'ActiveDocument.Protect _
'Type:=wdAllowOnlyFormFields, NoReset:=True, Password:=""
'End If
DoEvents
WordApp.Activate
Set WordApp = Nothing
Exit Sub
ErrHandler:
Set WordApp = Nothing
End Sub
Thank You

I haven't tried this but WordApp.Documents.Add Template:=strTemplate, NewTemplate:=True does return the new document. So I would do something like
Dim doc as Word.Document
Set doc = WordApp.Documents.Add(Template:=strTemplate, NewTemplate:=True)
and reference doc throughout my code instead of ActiveDocument. It seems like doing that should get help you avoid the particular situation you're concerned about.
