If you understand the Word file format, you could certainly write Word documents. But that's hard. Easier is to write RTF documents, which Word can open. I've done that and it's not that hard. One way to get started is to create a document that looks the way you want in Word, then save it as RTF and look at the resulting document. regards, Geoff
