Razzak, I look fwd to that feature of v7, but I gotta' get this done ASAP - you know about users, don't you, esp. as I'm one and I want it to work my way now, even though I never specified my req'ts to the development team ... man, wouldn't it be a dangerous world if buildings and transportation vehicles (planes/trains/automobiles) were designed and implemented that way!
Anyway, this ODBC approach you mentioned. Would you be suggesting the link/insertion of RBase data into a Word doc by way of ODBC? If so, I should have considered that, but I'm glad that you did. I'd use WordPerfect, then save it as Word, but the approach in general is feasible.
