Need to to be able to edit a MS Word document inside a form

[dddenney]

Can anyone offer some advice on embedding a Word document inside a form. The word document is the end result of an OCR'd image. What I need to do is to have the word doc on the left hand side of the screen and the original image on the right hand side, so that the user can compare them. I am able to create a Word object, but it is displayed outside the form, which would cause the user to switch back and forth. I need the embedded word doc to be fully editable. Any suggestions?

Hi!

Make a cursor in memory with general field. Add one record. Use APPEND GENERAL ... command to put Word file in it or just create an empty Word document object. THan display content of the general field using OLEBoundControl using its ControlSource property. Using OLEBoundControl.Object reference you can access objects model of the OLE control inside.

Hope this helps.

Of course, you don't have to use a bound control and a general field, but if you don't, you need to do some additional programming to save your editing, etc. --Dave
