Tracy,

>Have there been any previous articles in either magazine on the methods that exist to populate pdf form fields with VFP data? I'm not referring to converting a vfp report to a pdf file but taking vfp data and sending it to a pdf form that already exists and contains fillable form fields?

Rick Schummer did a series in FoxTalk on working with Acrobat back in Oct, Nov, Dec 2001. Part 3, which was in the December 2001 issue, showed how to use a FDF COM object to read and write the form field contents.
