Randy,

If type library isn't on the list, you can use Browse button to locate it.

>No you cant. The Corel - WordPerfect 9 type library does not show up in the list in Fox's object browser. But your answer was useful, as I hunted down the OLE/COM Object Viewer from VS 6.0 and used it to obtain the enum values.

This particular merge was for only one data record, so the following kludge got me home. It is easily adapted for multi record sets. We call WP and instruct it to create its own format data file from our data.
