>>It may be late and I'm just not thinking clearly, but I have appropriated the code from VFP 6's samples that show a form imbedding Word, placing some text in and formatting. That's great, but how do you take the contents of a memo field,send it to Word, let it spellcheck/grammar check and then (here's the biggie) return the changes to the memo field?

Thanks! Funny, but I actually thought of that after I went to bed. Initially I was thinking I could just macro a ctrl+v back in the VFP form and then the _cliptext notion came up.
