Hi Tim, Thanks for replying.
It needs to be a small application/plug-in which can visualise data that is either within Word already or which is sent to it via a server on the localhost. The actual GUI will be very simple, for example and image and some buttons. What it actually has to do should be quite simple, but I have never programmed Word plug-ins before, and am also new to Python. cheers, rod -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
