Hi Jum;
Why don't you use OLE Automation instead ?
You can find a lot of sample code in the microsoft web site this is just one
example ":

http://support.microsoft.com/support/kb/articles/Q161/5/47.asp

Here you have a Little sample in Fox:

oWordRef = CreateObject('word.basic')
oWordRef.FileOpen('MyFile.doc') && Open a file
oWordRef.FileClose() && Close a file
oWordRef = CreateObject('word.basic')
nWordWindows = oWordRef.CountWindows()
? "Currently open windows:"
FOR j = 1 TO m.nWordWindows && lists all open windows
? oWordRef.WindowName(m.j)
ENDFOR
? "Active window:"
? oWordRef.WindowName(oWordRef.Window())
* activates first windowo
WordRef.Activate(oWordRef.WindowName(1))


Hope this help.
