If the attachment is a word document, how would you pass parameters or
variables to it?  Run a script?

OLE is a bit old-fashioned nowadays.
You did not state where the Word or PDF document is. If it's in an
attachment I guess you should look at the PERFORM-ACTION-OPEN-ATTACHMENT
special Run Process command.
If the attachment is on a network drive or webserver you could use
PERFORM-ACTION-OPEN-URL

Kind regards,

Michiel
