I've been watching this thread with some interest and hove gone ahead and 
incorporated your ideas in my own program.  I am not using word though, but 
using Quattro Pro from the Corel Suite 8.  The suite comes with OLE Code 
inserter.  It supports Presetations, Quattro Pro, WordPerfect and Delphi.  I 
expected the first three, the fourth was a rather pleasant surprise.  Anyway, 
I use Quattro to receive my data from my program and then to print.  Only 
Qualm I have is the fact that when the CreateOLEObject function is called it 
forces Quattro to display its splash screen and then 'show' itself.  I have 
right after that call a command to minimize Quattro, but would rather not se 
any part of Quattro loading.  I'm going to move onto trying to perform the 
same task using an OLEContainer in Delphi.  If you have any ideas on how I 
might solve my problem please let me know.
Thanks,
