Thanks to all who responded to my previous request for information on how to print a Word doc out of VFP.

Two methods were recommended to me.

CREATEOBJECT(word.application)

and

SHELLEXECUTE()

Briefly, the application requires scanning a table with a list of Word Documents which must be printed for each policy.

I was able to get the output I needed using both methods.

I'm curious, though, as to what your thoughts are as to the reletive merits of each method. Does one have more "gotcha's" to worry about? Is one faster? Is one more portable between operating systems (NT, 95, 98 are all possibilities).

Thanks again...........Rich
