> I am having problems finding information on using Word
> Automation.  What I am trying to do is use CFMX (6.0) to open

> file, insert data from our database at the bookmark
> locations, and then save the document as a new file on the server.
> Once the file has been saved, I need to push it to the client
> browser (via a UNC path).

> I think I have the information I need to work with the
> bookmarks, and know how to push the resulting file to the
> client.  But I'm having problems reliably opening the
> word.application object.

> I'm sure this has been done before but am finding very little
> references in how to do it.  Am I just misreading what I have
> found?  Is there some trick that I don't know about?
