Is it possible to create a drag and VBA Word application that is drag
and drop. I wish to take a text file and drop it into the desktop
icon where it will be inserted to template and then spit out two
files, one as a *.doc and the other as a *.pdf document. Double
clicking on the icon would launch configuration window which allow me
to change, say, the footer, or cover page. Or is it just better to
add the app to the main menu bar?

You might be able to add a couple of icons to the desktop that are shortcuts
to winword.exe and set up the run line inside the icon properties to launch
winword.exe with a macro launched to do a particular job.

Wscript or Vbscript might also be used in a script file, but applescript
would be used for MacWord.

Thanks for your help, Russ.
