File searching without FILER.DLL & Office Automation

[foxdev]

I remember there had been some discussion in some of the threads about the wonderful file find features of FILER.DLL, and how Microsoft's licensing forbids the distribution of FILER.DLL with the VFP runtime.<br><br>I've found an alternative, at least for those folks who have at least one of the Microsoft Office applications installed.&nbsp;&nbsp;I've created a <font color=red>FAQ</font> entry for this, including sample code.&nbsp;&nbsp;Hopefully, it will be of some use to someone.<br><br>If anyone has any interest in creating Word form letters from VFP data (or any other Word interface issues), let me know and I'll FAQ that one, too. <p>Robert Bradley<br><a href=mailto: > </a><br><a href=

I checked out your <b>FAQ</b> and posted one of my own.&nbsp;&nbsp;It does not do all that your does but it works reasonable well. <p> <br><a href=mailto:blindpete@mail.com>blindpete@mail.com</a><br><a href= > </a><br>
