Hi,
Most folks use Java. Here is code for a Word doc:

package oracle.forms.demos.ole;
import com.jacob.activeX.ActiveXComponent;
import java.awt.Panel;
import com.jacob.com.*;
public class wordbean extends Panel
private ActiveXComponent MsWordApp = null;
private Dispatch document = null;
public void openWord(boolean makeVisible)
//Open Word if we've not done it already
if (MsWordApp == null)
MsWordApp = new ActiveXComponent("Word.Application");
//Set the visible property as required.
Dispatch.put(MsWordApp, "Visible",
new Variant(makeVisible));
}
