Ron,

Have you tried a reinstall of Word?

>I have been manipulating both Excel and Word via VFP in a large number of applications. However, I recently installed windows xp professional on one of my machines. I no longer can create a "WORD APPLICATION " object. oleExcel = CREATEOBJECT("Excel.application") works fine. But, oWord=CREATEOBJECT("Word.Application") bombs everytime with the specified module cannot be found. I've already applied patch "SR1" to word 2000.
