In general you just write the parameters in VFP style,, so False corresponds to .f., instead of Wod constants you can substitute their values from VBA Help or, better use the Word constants header file which you can download from Files Section.

So this sample coul be translated to:

#INCLUDE w97const.h
oWord.ActiveDocument.MailMerge.OpenDataSource ("F:\APPS\MERGEDATA.DBF",.f.,.f.,.t.,.f.,"","","","",.f.,wdOpenFormatAuto, ;
"DSN=FoxPro Files - Word;UID=;PWD=;SourceDB=F:\APPS;SourceType=DBF;Exclusive=No;BackgroundFetch=Yes;Collate=MACHINE;Null=Yes;Deleted=Yes;","SELECT * FROM MERGEDATA","")

oWord.Application.MailingLabel.DefaultPrintBarCode = .f.

oWord.Application.MailingLabel.CreateNewDocument("","","ToolsCreateLabels1",wdPrinterManualFeed)
