>Has anybody heard of "Visual Documents"?

Check it out there. I use it - it is basically an RTF library. You can create templates in Word (and anything else capable of saving as RTF) and then you can use VFP/VisDocs to open the RTF document and merge data into the RTF streams that are available to you in the package. You can then save the completed merged document as an RTF file and print it using Word or numerous RTF controls, including the MS one.
