I'm coding a database right now, and for the reports I have to
generate, I MUST you WP61 for windows.  I have no choice.

I am using VB3.0 for the front end, WP6.1 for Windows, Access 2.0 as
the database back end.

The easiest way I can see to create the report I need is to use OLE
automation.  HOWEVER, I am not onsite, do not have a copy of WP61, and
so, do not have the documentation neccesary.

I was wondering if someone could tell me what the OLE automation codes
are for
1)  Starting WP61(I assume this will be the same as for any MS app,
but just want to check)
2)  Creating a new file
3)  Running a macro
4)  Saving that file

If there is some online docs that can help me with this, I would
appreciate that as well.  Thanx in advance.  Post or reply.
