Please Help - OLE controls in VB6

[Guest_imported]

Hi, wondering if anyone can help me. I am stuck in coding the OLE in VB6 for Microsoft Word so that this can be accessed from my VB6 container and once used, can be brought back to my VB6 container. Can anyone help?? Thanks.

It's probably just me being dense, but I can't quite figure out what it is that you are asking. Could you clarify a little?

sorry, what I am trying to do is: when clicking on a command button or in a text box, Word will be brought up so that the user can write a document etc. Once finished, they can close word and this will bring the document into the text box in my VB container. I am stuck with the coding of this...I would be grateful for your help. Thanks.

Use the SHELL statement.
no need for OLE (automation) unless you want some control over the Word.
