Well, I don't know for sure. I have done Excel automation, mainly, not Word. First of all, you have to check the Word Object Model, to see where you apply "Selection". If you have a pointer, oDocument, to the current document, perhaps something like oDocument.Selection... would work. "_" is, of course, the line-continuation character, similar to ";" in VFP. VBA accepts named parameters, VFP doesn't. Therefore, you have to check (in VBA) the syntax of the function AddPicture, to get a version of the function which specifies parameters by position, not by name.
