Need to Display Word Document

One of the requirements I've been given for a new project is that I display
a word document containing images in a "Window" or box on a panel. Have no
idea how to do this. Can somebody point me to a control or info?

Search the example programs on NI's web site for Word and ActiveX. Or
try this link:
http://digital.ni.com/explprog.nsf/75c7cd5de6d387788625663d00558a4c/13522945a0581de9862566790049ce49?OpenDocument
I was able to distill this example down and get something working with
Word97 (for which it was writt
en) and for W2000 (which presented two
minor glitches).
Does anyone know how different ActiveX is for Word 7a compared to W97?
