I need to change the file being previewed as you would expect, but am quite happy for it to be read only. It has to be free as we don't have any allowance in the budget for anything remotely interesting. Using D5, Windows 2000 and Office 2000. Thanks Ryan Back to top Bruce Roberts Guest Posted: Mon Feb 14, 2005 3:16 pm    Post subject: Re: Preview Component for Form "Ryan" <ryanofford (AT) hotmail (DOT) com> wrote Quote: Any idea where I can get a component for previewing word or excel docs (read only) to drop onto a form ?

D5 Prof. has automation components for this, see tWordApplication, tWordDocument, etc. in the help. You may also find http://www.djpate.freeserve.co.uk/Automation.htm useful.

At work we use Microsoft's own Visio Viewer for its documents. Some quick Googling suggests that viewers exist for Word and Excel.

I used TWebBrowser and the following line : WebBrowser1.Navigate('c:SomeFolderSomeDocument.doc') ; Now I can edit/preview through this.
