www.dbi-tech.com, they have a new great control "Solutions Explorer" which has the possibility to display html, word, power point (and so on) documents. They also have a package with a lot of controls, it's the 4th version now, maybe there is a lighter control only for documents. The products work great with VFP. Another good place to search for components is
www.componentsource.com.
Scott,
sorry for the delayed answer, was very busy ...
Solutions::Explorer displays the documents in an OLE container inside the VFP application, i think it's using the active document "properties" of IE. On the website there is a demo version for download, the only difference to the full version are some nag screens.
