Word has an object model which it exposes to client applications via the COM infrastructure. Just about anything you can do interactively with Word can be accomplished through automation. There is a great book available from Hentzenwerke Publishing called "MS Office Automation with VFP". There are a lot of good examples in there.

Another option, which doesn't require MS Word to be installed, is creating HTML pages dynamically. VFP is a natural at this kind of thing. Basically, all you do is SCAN your tables and build up the HTML into a string variable, then using STRROFILE(), write it to a file. To preview or print, use the Web Browser control in a VFP form.
