The Word.Basic example reminded me of something I will eventually need to find out. I have Word97, which documents VBA rather than WordBasic. But people here say that automating the Word97 VBA object model from VFP doesn't really work well. They say that many important methods just don't function, and continue to automate it using Word95 WordBasic, which is supported, but not documented, in Word97. Do I need to find a Word95 programmer's guide, or what? Would such a thing still be in print?
