we have a file that is preset to hold the document.  so then we just have to 
clear it.

then, we have a cl that does the copy, and it retrieves the data to be passed. 
( i'm at
home and don't have the exact details)

from there, you can pass it to your p/c.

i can get the exact info tomorrow if you need it.  but i'm sure someone else 
will
provide..
