Lew,
I like to generate .doc files by using textmerge() and RTF codes. I =
build a "template" using Word, save this document as RTF, and then open =
up the .rtf file and look at the codes required to achieve specific =
formatting - essentially reverse engineering the RTF spec to fit my =
requirements.
I then create my own RTF file with << >> delimiters and use textmerge() =
to fill in the blanks. Word automatically detects file types by looking =
at file headers, so you can use textmerge() to create a RTF file with a =
.doc extension and Word will open it fine.

I'd like to know the list's current 3rd party product preferences (&
reasons) for generating and reading .pdf's and .doc's. Reading them back
& parsing them into VFP is of particular interest.
