Hello Richard,
Yes, sure. It is FIVEWIN and Fivewin-ActiceX class.
I am doing right now some test reopening the report files with Microsoft WORD.
As we use WORD daily it would be best for me to use WORD as a designer.
I noticed that I must be carefully not to have space character inside the placeholder.
Best regards,
Otto

Sounds good.
Maybe you can design it for Excel.

Hello Richard,
I tried to find a solution to programmatically insert, or edit, a pie chart in a Word document from EXCEL?
But I can't fine out how OLE works.
In my case, the chart is converted in an image and if I change the EXCEL file the image is not updated.
Do you have a solution for this?
Maybe as a workaround we can open WORD programmatically after the values in EXCEL are changed and confirm somehow the question if the OLE object should be updated.
Please see the gif.

Best regards,
Otto

Richard, I've thought again now.
But I think it is best to use the FIVEWIN class for now. I think otherwise you get lost in the detail.
Best regards,
Otto
