Hadn't heard of this previously either. I'll have a look at the Delphi 
source when I get a chance and let you know.

Sounds cool.

I haven't looked at any Word add-ons recently (except for the macros 
that my translation and OCR packages added to Word); but if they're VBA 
based, they ought to work in ANY recent version of Word (FLW).

If they're compiled Word add-in DLLs, that's another story of course.

Any in particular you're concerned about? I can try to have a look at 
them and see what's not working.
