T'aint a Zope question, exactly; it's a Python question. I think you only
get COM is you add PythonWin extensions; whether you get those automatically
depends on whose Python distribution you're using. Or, if you using the one
that comes with Zope, then it sure looks like it is there w/2.5.1 (look in
$ZOPE_HOME\bin\win32 under 2.5.0 and see)

Unless someone is in the same room as the server and likes pretty pictures,
it probably doesn't make any sense to objWord.Application.Visible=True, does
it? It should work the same but faster without it.

Let us know how it works -- if it's too slow or cranky, you could always
contact the database yourself in Python, and edit a RTF file as a string to
sub in these values. It would be uglier and lower-level, but might be much
faster. Or, if this doesn't happen more than once a second (one a nice box),
it might be fine.
