Hi Francis,
if you convert the word document to a RTF document then you could drop it
onto a field from the finder.
The field would have this script
---------------------------------------------
on dragDrop
put the dragData["files"] into tFiles
put line 1 of tFiles into tAFile
set the itemDelimiter to "."
if item - 1 of tAFile is "rtf" then
put url ("binfile:" & tAFile) into tRTF
set the rtftext of me to tRTF
end if
end dragDrop
--------------------------------------------
it even respects the tab positioning.
Tested with a simple 2 line 3 columns text, for more complex documents it
might differ.
Note as of LC8 DP8 onwards the field object does not accept dragDrop from
the Finder on MacOSX. Bug 17072
Kind regards
Bernd
