Derived classes (e.g. danskWord) have the same-name exposed methods but call the underlying word object in the appropriate language. That way you can write all your routines ignoring the underlying language, and add other languages as you go.

Hi Robert,

Thanks for your reply, now it makes sence why the english funcs didn't work.
But now I have another problem and perhaps you have a solution for this.

This will not work:

oWordBasic = CREATEOBJECT('Word.Basic')
oWordBasic.Appshow
oWordBasic.FileNew.Template = 'TEMPLATE.DOT'

The following error occurs:
FileNew does not evaluate to an object member.

If you look in WordBasic it should be something like this:

FileNew .Template = 'TEMPLATE.DOT'

How do you call this func from VFP5???
