Super Easy Word Merge - including object

[Guest]

Hi,

I have used the Super Easy Word Merge
http://www.members.shaw.ca/AlbertKallal/wordmerge/page2.html

It works fine except when I have a object in my database. Is there anyway
to make the object in the database become a link in my word document?
Or is there a better way around this?

That merge example does not support object type fields.

In fact, I would recommend that you send a query to the wordmerge..and not
include that field...

If you must create a link, or put other data into the word document, then
this one case were using bookmarks, and dumping the word merge ability makes
sense (if you Google this newsgroup, you will find MANY examples of word
merge using bookmarks (which in fact is really a approach that ignores the
word merge feature..and is a code approach).

And here is a VBA method, which does support all datatypes using Bookmarks:
