Imad,

ox.Visible = .t.

The VBAWRD8.HLP and VBAXL8.HLP files are optional components of the Office install.

There are also a couple of links, especially John Harvey's site, and one article on my website that should help.

>ox=getobj('c:\myfile.doc') seems to execute fine yet displays nothing. I guess it makes an instance of msword with the specified file open. How do I make myfile.doc visible? Where can I get info on word, excel, netscape commands to manipulate these applications from VFP? Thanks
