Yeah Bill, you could do that, but the essence of what we're saying is that you have to pass the parameters in the
correct order in VFP as in:
oword.activedocument.printout(.t.,,,,2,.t.) whereas in VB you can pass them in any order you want using the vba
constants.


And one more ... I see you've got the .t. here ... is .f. required for all logicals (where they're not true, of course)?
