host office in application form WITHOUT webbrowser control.

[norbert]

I am trying to find a way to host Ms. Word documents inside a form, created
in APL. I have access to ocx, ole, windows api, etc. This needs to be done
without using the webbrowser as the ole container due to some security
restricions on some clients systems.

I belive this was do able in VB 6 back in the day.

You might want to look at DsoFramer.ocx at

I am currently experimenting with the dsoFramer. However, it's another
object we must distribute and install on a clients machine. Ideally what I
was looking for was use the tools already available native to Windows. (such
as the windows api?)

I found a solution using the Windows API and the SetParent function.
