MSWord to Access

[DSmith]

Is it possible to import a whole document in MSWord into an Access Report?
We print a certificate using the Word Merge. I'd like to bring that
certificate design into Access and generate the report totally in Access.
Any help is always appreciated.

Not total.
How I have approached that has been to either save the
word document as a jpg file or print screen and copy that
into Access. Than you cna place some text boxes in the
areas where you wish to enter the variables.
It may be more flexible and cleaner to place labels on a
new report with the permanent data, and also including
pictures etc. than enter some text boxes for the
variables.
Hope this helps.

You can bring a whole PAGE into an Access Report by embedding
a Word Object into your report, just like a sub report.

Unless it has changed since last I looked, you can only get
one page at a time this way. Which may be ok if your certificate
fits onto one page.
