>I have approximately 30 users on my app and not all of them have the same standards for word processors. Some use WP6.1 and word, while others use WordPro, or possibly nothing at all. I would like to use this technique, but I can't get all of my users on the same word processor application. Under these circumstances, do you think OLE can be acomplished? I'm very interested in this idea, please reply if you have time. Thnx!

John,
It would involve keeping track what type of Word Processor they use, and then writing a module for each one, to handle you chore.. Not impossible, but it would involve customization for each client.. I would think, since my office is supporting Word and Wordperfect, I had to write two ritines, and call one depending on what WP the users have available ( find it thru registery lookup).. One thing would be again, what if they have a 3.1/3.0 Word Processor...

Thanx!
