Add a word document to a record.

[Guest]

Is it possible to add a word document as a field in a record? I see that you
can create a hyperlink to a document but I actually want the word document to
be part of the database itself. Any suggestions is appreciated.
thanks,

Hello there,

You can add a Word doc as a field. Add a field and give
it an OLE Object type. In the datasheet you can then
right click the field and choose Insert Object. When you
are inserting do not check the box for Link. This will
make your Word doc part of the database.

Hope this helps
