>Hi all,

>I could go looking around but just wondered if anyone has released classes to automate Word and Excel? I have the book "Microsoft Office Automation with Visual Foxpro" and its all good stuff - but I think I could sell a client on doing some automation stuff if I did not have to spend time first writing a generic Word and Excel class to do stuff like opening each of these, opening/closing documents and all that housekeeping kind of stuff.

Since you have the book, check out the last chapter. There's a wrapper class there that handles a lot of the basics.
