Yes, you are quite correct,

and I do use OLE to communicate from VFP to MS Word.

My real problem is how to make MS Word communicate with VFP as DDE is not supported and creating an OLE Server is not an option in VFP 3.0.

My hope was that there would be another way, such as AppleScript, making it possible to make MS Word retrieve info from VFP in Mac.
