MS Access and MS Word

[huberm]

I have an MS Access database at work that contains personal info that I would like to be automatically entered into a word document when I click a button in an MS Access Form.

The Word doc has areas to type in last name, first name, etc. and they are all located in this database. Is there a way that I can somehow click a button in Access that would put it in the word doc for the field I'm currently looking at?

Thanks!

I haven't done exactly what you are talking about, but I have done something similar. It is possible to do this using the Word Object model and some code:

Here is a page that wll get you started: There are a load of resources out there documenting the Word object model.
