Document in own application??

[Ivan Debono]

Hi all,

I would like to open word documents in my own application. What I currently
do is place an IE control on my VB form, then open the document using IE. It
opens fine and works great because I wouldn't know what version of Word the
end-user will have.

The only thing is that the reviewing toolbar is shown and I would like to
hide that toolbar and show:
1. either the file toolbar (new, save, open, print, etc),
2. or a customized toolbar (where there will be new, print, print preview
for example)

Is this possible? If yes, how??

Thanks,
Ivan

I'm pretty sure this can be done using OLE but I'm no expert so it'll be
trial and error I'm afraid! Just bear in mind that toolbar objects seem to
be differrent between 2000 and XP/2003. But this might be more to do with
references than anything else.

One problem. Actually it's within a usercontrol and not a form, and vb
doesn't allow ole controls on a usercontrol
