    Re: Word 97 files.

    I assume you mean in a program compiled under VC++, not in the actual development environment.

    In which case, you can use WinWord.exe as an ActiveX Server.

    I can't find in the MSDN docs where/how to do this in VC++, only in VB.

    Basically, what you do is host Word inside your app. It'll show up as a window in your program (I think it's easiest to do in a MDI project).

    Can't help you out much more than that. Check MSDN, under ActiveX Documents and Word/Office 97.

    I'll let you know if I see anything more enlightening.
