Controlling Word externally using VB

Hi, I'm writing some new functionality into a standalone VB prog for work. I'd like it to open a particular Word file, modify some text fields (either text boxes or activex controls), print, and exit without saving. I tried plucking the necessary code by recording a macro from within the Word file, but the syntax/commands don't seem to be the same when you try to control Word externally. Any help would be appreciated.
