Stored procedures
Opens a Word Processing file (docx format) in Read/Write mode. The docx file is opened and locked until it is closed.
Remark: To create a docx file without using an initial file, simply create a variable of type Document (function DocOpen is then useless).
Example
// Using a Document variable
d is Document
d = DocOpen("C:\Users\test\Documents\file.docx")

IF ErrorOccurred() THEN
	Error(ErrorInfo())
	RETURN
END
// Using a Word Processing control
DocOpen(WP_MyWP, "C:\Users\test\Documents\file.docx")

IF ErrorOccurred() THEN
	Error(ErrorInfo())
	RETURN
END
