John,

I posted a VFP prg over on my website in the last couple of days that will take an IDL file, which the OLE/COM viewer can create from an OLB, and produce a set of VFP #defines for the constants. I made a webpage for the Word97 constants

I'm acutally toying with a VFP IDL parser with the intent to do a more VFP friendly object browser and some sort of Intellisense.

>To find the constant values, use the object browser (F2) in the VB editor of an office application. In this case, use Excel - since a reference to the Excel Application Type Library will automatically be present.
