David,
PrintOut syntax from help :

expression.PrintOut(Background, Append, Range, OutputFileName, From, To, Item, Copies, Pages, PageType, PrintToFile, Collate, FileName, ActivePrinterMacGX, ManualDuplexPrint, PrintZoomColumn, PrintZoomRow, PrintZoomPaperWidth, PrintZoomPaperHeight)


IOW you have the parameters in wrong places. You recorded a macro but VB could use named arguments not VFP. Parameters should be in exact places :

oWord.ActiveDocument.Printout(.T.,,,cOutputFileName,,,,,,,.T.)
