I have been programming add-in for Microsoft Office Word. I need to open an existing document in a new window Word. How can I do this?

I think you can use it like here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/16253215/open-and-modify-word-document — , Oct 15 '13 at 06:13
Thank you, but this method only works if the first document is edited (or not empty). Otherwise, a second document opens in the first window. — Ateist, Oct 15 '13 at 06:26
