Hi Derek,
I would assume that you'd simply need to do
word.Visible = True
to have the instance of word show itself.
let me know if it helps.

Subject: Creating Word Doc from text in EditField
Hi
I've been trying to get rb2006r2 to launch a Word Doc using the text a
user enters in a texbox (editfield).
I've been bashing my head against the wall on this. I've even resorted to
the LR and can't get it to work. Code snip below (cleaned up for rb built in
mistakes)
I had to rem out the lines that rb doesn't seem to recognize but still
nothing. I don't get an exception just nothing launches. I've even tried:
doc.launch (not recognized obviously now). Any other forces i could use?
Anyone had the same issues? work around?
I thought I might try to launch word first and then 'feed' the file but
that has caused problems in the past.
Thanks
Derek
Dim word as WordApplication
Dim doc as WordDocument
Dim style as WordStyle
Dim v as Variant
word = New WordApplication
doc = word.documents.add
doc.range.text = Editfield1.text
v = doc.paragraphs.item(1).style
// If v.objectvalue IsA wordstyle then
style = wordstyle(v.objectvalue)
// styletext.text = style.namelocal
// stylefontname.text = style.font.name
// stylefontsize.text = Str(style.font.size)
// end if
Exception err as OLEException
