Problem with Process.WaitForExit()

Hi there,

I am startint a process with

Process myproc = new Process();
myproc.StartInfo = new ProcessStartInfo("C:\Test.rtf");
myproc.Start();
myproc.WaitForExit();

this works very well when Word isn't already open. When
Word is already openend then the rtf-File is displayed in
a new window but the myproc.WaitForExit() throws an
exception.

Does anybody know what to do?

Thanks.

Ilara
