>>I want to find a list of properties for Word to make automation from VFP. I search on Microsoft site but didn't find the list. At this moment I am able to create a new document, insert text, format this text and save document but I don't know how to make word visible. In Excel the code is OExcel.visible = 1 but didn't work in with Word.

>Word is a bit weird because it doesn't use VBA (it was added to Word 97). You need to use WordBasic before the new version. There should be a WordBasic help file that will give you this information....by the way, OWord.Visible = 1 won't work. You really don't have access to properties. You do it all by calling functions. Something like oWord.Visible().

I found out how to do this by cheating, after many trys I finally copied the code from the solutions example that ships with foxpro 5.0. I don't know why, but it works. (Had something to do with one of the DEFINE, clauses I think). Take a look.
DO \VFP\SAMPLES\Solutions.pjx or similar.
