OLE programming and automation (MS Word)

I’m trying to implement OLE automation embedding an instance of MS Word within a VB application to use as an embedded text editor. I’m having real difficulty finding printed materials to support specifically what I’m doing.

Please recommend support materials that are explicit in programming VB applications utilizing from within (embedded) MS Word and other Office products. Current difficulties include identifying contents of the embedded OLE Word window and saving as a .doc file, etc.

Please help! =(

The key word is embedding. The only way I know how to embed is to add the Microsoft Word Object in the insertable objects tab of the add components to project form, to your form. This is very limited though. I don't know how to (or even if you can) manipulate it from VB. I've always used automation to create my own instance of Word. You have all the power in the world over that instance of Word at that point. But it is not embedded in your form.
