Hi All, I am struggling with some issues. In order to give the users the possiblity to edit layouts of their documents within their own comfortzone i decided to make use of Microsoft word. It works like a charm but My problem: The users wants a quick-preview of the document when or before merging/editing the document. So i thought i make a form with a printpreview component on it, kick of the word document and go. But this does not work, the preview component cannot handle word documents and i would rather not start up an instance of word (to costy and heavy in loading time Any suggestions, ideas how to give the users a fast preview? Thanks!! Marcel
