Default Need Help With Opening a Word Document

Need Help With Opening a Word Document from Access AND having Document_Open() activate automatically AND having the file available for editing/saving.

I have tried the following, but the document opens as a READ-ONLY file and VBA is NOT enabled or prompted for.

I need the file to open for editing & saving, and with VBA enabled automatically.

Code:
Private Sub cmdTO_Click()
    On Error Resume Next
 
    Dim Webtarget As String
    Dim wdObj As Object
    Dim wdDoc As Object
    'Must enable the Microsoft Word 14.0 Object Library from the Tools menu, References.
 
    Webtarget = "\\...\ShiftTurnover\U1TO.docm"
 
    Set wdObj = CreateObject("Word.Application")
    wdObj.Visible = True
    wdObj.Activate
    Set wdDoc = wdObj.Documents.Open(Webtarget)
 
    DoCmd.SetWarnings True
 
End Sub
Is there more to the .Documents.Open(___) syntax to allow opening for editing and macro enabling?

Your help is GREATLY appreciated.
