Hi Naomi,
I think I made success by using Word documents. I made whole report by using Word; from VFP I exported wanted fields to Excel file and later used it as data source directly, without suing annoying ODBC. Then by using Mail merge Word's tool I added necessary data fields, made in VFP small code that call Word document and - voila: doesn't work! Honestly, VFP opened Word's document but doesn't fill data fields with values. Then I made small "dirty" trick with documents and now all is OK and working. :)
I didn't try it as part of EXE but should it be OK, right? Thanks again for your gain to help me. Unfortunately I wasn't enough smart to employ RTF controls, so I decide to give a try to Word.
