Probably a really silly question, I just made a database with hyperlinks to
word reports. I have been asked if there is a way to store the word
documents inside the access program. So far there are over 300+ reports, each
consisting of several pages.
Thanks
 
Well, if you ask whether it is possible, yes: you can store documents in a
field of type OLE Object.

If you ask whether it it practical: no the database will bloat badly and
quickly be unusable.

The best solution will be to linking the documents, as you have done.
