Hi François, in RevOnline (3.5 and up) there is a very nice little stack "Shell Command Help" by Phil Davis which gives you the man (help) pages for any shell command you want the man for. regards Bernd -- View this message in context: http://n4.nabble.com/MS-Word-document-export-tp1290060p1401362.html Sent from the Revolution - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ___ use-revolution mailing list use-revolution@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution

MS Word document export
Howdy RunRevvers, I'm cooking up a library to export Revolution text fields to MS Word and Open Office documents. There will be Excel spreadsheet support too. If you would like to try a beta of the Word export in a few days, let me know off-list and mention whether you use Windows and/or Mac.
