Export to word problem

Hi There,

I have a mail merge working where i export my fields to a tab file then use the send message script to open a word doc with the fields merged in, well it works fine the first time but any subsequent export wont overwrite the existing tab field that the previous export created. if i go and manually delete it it works fine as it creates a new file. Am i missing something obvious?

Also when one user (we have 40) opens the file (the word file that i store on the server that holds the merge fields) it cant be opened if any other user tries as its 'locked' by the first user. Is there a way to do all this with many users, like open a file as a copy or something? i am only average experience so any suggestions welcome!

thanks for your help.
