Then you're not sending a valid Range. You have to create a range object and then pass that. Selection.Range means nothing coming from VFP. Lets say you wanted the contents of Cell 1,1 in Table 1 as the range:
oDoc=oWordObj.ActiveDocument
oTab=oDoc.Tables(1)
oCellRange=oTab.Cell(1,1).Range
See?

>>>I am trying to create a table in word that will have links to various documents created in my VFP database. The table and all of the information is no problem. Where I am having trouble is getting the correct syntax for establishing the hyperlink. I ran a macro to get the basics and where I am getting hung up is on the anchor. The following is what I have tried:
>>>
>>>oWordObj.ActiveDocument.HyperLinks.Add("selection.range","test","","","test1")

>>>I get a data type mismatch the best I can figure it is with the "selection.range" does anyone know the correct systax.
