Hello, Cetin!
Picking up an old (but good) thread here. In my app the user writes one form letter at a time for each resort reservation that is completed. I want to make a lot of data fields available to the user who creates these form letters but there would be only one row in the table at the time of the merge. It seems like this paste method would be appropriate to my situation.
Some questions: Can I define a datasource with named fields which makes it easy for the user to pick fields and insert them into a form letter?
Does this paste method create what Paul Witt calls a "word table"?
I couldn't find an "editpaste" method for Word in the object browser. Is that the correct name?
I tried _VFP.DataToClip. It worked and I pasted the results by hand into a word document. Would this document than become a datasource for the form letter document?
I'm getting help with my problem in a current thread #
132599.
Thanks for any help.
