The diff/merge built into TSvn causes an error in Word 12: The requested member of the collection does not exist. There's a simple fix, tho. First, open the diff and merge scripts that TSvn runs in a text editor (Diff-Scripts\diff-doc.js and Diff-Scripts\merge-doc.js in the TSvn install directory, which is by default C:\Program Files\TortoiseSVN). Scroll down to line 47 (49 in merge script) and replace it with the following code:

if ( Number(word.Version) < 12 )
{
	word.ActiveDocument.Windows(1).Visible = 1;
}

Like I said, very simple. I just got very annoyed by that error everytime I opened the file and figured I'd post something for others.
