Hello Walter,
thanks for your help, I have now grasped the basics of how to do this, this is where I'm at so far.

    1) User starts an instance of word ( not from VFP ).
    2) Creates a new doc from my template ( code.dot ).
    3) Code.dot has a button on it with "Import Crystal Report" as its caption.
    4) The Click event of the button calls a module PKTest containing this code:
          
    Sub PKTest()
    Dim oCR,oRep as Object

    Set oCR = CreateObject("CrystalRuntime.Application")
    Set oRep = oCR.OpenReport("myfilename.rpt")
    
    oRep.EnableParameterPrompting = False
    oRep.ExportOptions.FormatType = 14

    oRep.ExportOptions.DiskFileName = "anyname.doc"
    oRep.ExportOptions.DestinationType = 1

    oRep.Export(False)
    Documents.Open("anyname.doc")

End Sub

what I would like to do is, firstly populate the first page of the document with Fox data, e.g. user enters an order number into a textbox on the Word form which calls my VFP server and this in turn populates the pre defined fields on the document( I pretty well know how to do this ), then directly import the Crystal Report output onto a second page, if this is not possible have you any ideas on how it may be done another way, if this is taking too much of your time don't worry about it and thank you very much for your help


Regards

Pete
