>>I am not very familiar with OLE, and what I do know was changed when Word went to version 7. I can open a Word97 doc in the background, write text from a VFP table to it (or from an array, etc.), but I can't seem to grasp the syntax for saving it with a filename and closing it.

>In that version of VFP (5) you have to use word.basic to save the file. In the next version you can use word.application. I've got several OLE samples on my webpage - some from me, some from MS and some from other developers. Also, David Frankenbach has some on his page. There's a reference to his page on mine.
