Thanks, Tim. Your code is quite relevant and not hard to follow.

I have one general question at this time. (Probably have more later.)

Are you pulling the data out of the DBF table and dumping it to a word document lcTmp+"_data.doc" which then becomes a data source for the actual form letter (lcTmpDoc). Is this what Paul Witt refers to as creating a "word table"?

Thanks again.
