Hello,
Can anyone tell me how to open a word-document read-only using OLE ?
Thanks a lot in advance for any help.

Michel,
I don't know the answer to your question, but have you considered just converting them to PDFs?

Hint: the Open() method has a ReadOnly parameter.

...
oWord:FileOpen( cDOCName [, nConfirmConversions [, nReadOnly ;
[, nAddToMru [, cPasswordDoc [, cPasswordDot [,
nRevert ;
[, cWritePasswordDoc [, cWritePasswordDot]]]]]]]] )
... ...
oWord:FileOpen("C:\MY DOCUMENTS\MYWORD.DOC" , , 2 )
...FileOpen() is not a method of Word, or at least it is not documented in the official Word OLE docs.

Here is what i use :
owrd:=Toleauto():new("word.application")
owrd:visible:=.T.
owrd:Documents:open("test.doc",,1) && avec ouverture read only
