Hi everybody:
I have a lot of word documents containing mathematical concepts which are created by using Word's equation editor. What I want to do is managing all questions/documents by putting them into a database and then retrieving data and showing them on a server side word document again by using Microsoft's office automation technology and relevant office interop DCOMs. My findings on the Net indicates that Word's equation editor can be placed on a server side doc file as follows:
Selection.InlineShapes.AddOLEObject ClassType:="Equation.3", LinkToFile:= False, DisplayAsIcon:=False
which sounds good but I don't know how to bind the Math related data to this OLE object. I can show text data on the Selection.Bookmarks but how can I bind the bounderies of an integral sign (for example) that I've retrieved from database?
Any idea? I do appreciate any help.

cheers
Aria
