MS Access question?

[coolVariable]

I have never done this before, so don't jump me if this is a really stupid question:

I have a lot of data in a MS Access database.
I would like to be able to print "reports" of this data based on certain filters.
(I have one field called category and one time I would need all the data which is identified with categ01 displayed and sometimes the data with categ02 ...)
The best thing would be if I could automatically create Word document reports from the data.

Is there a way to do this?
does anyone know of an online guide where I could find out how I can do this?

I have two words for you:
"Mail Merge"

If you are running Office XP the mail merge wizard is pretty decent, just go into word and run it. Be prepared to use the help documentation, mail merge is a beast 😉
