Hi Cecil,

>>I need to insure end user
can not rename the file 1st scenario and Can not access the save or saveas buttons 2 scenario so we can control
the name of the file user is working on.

If you copy the document to a general field and edit it in an OLEBoundControl, you have complete control over the File menu as you are using the VFP file menu instead of the Word file menu. You have access to all the other Word menu items you might need, however.
