He is using Word 7.0. The problem with Word97 was that certain VBA commands generated OLE errors when issued from VFP. I think that file.exit was one of them. The way around it is to just use wordbasic instead of VBA. Contrary to what seems like a popular belief, wordbasic works fine with Word97.

Juan,
after you instanciate word, have you tested to see if the createobject was successful?
Does oleobj.show generate the same error?
