Embedded Word Document

I have embedded a multi-page word document into a table which I access with a
form. When the form comes up only the 1st page is available. If you double
click on the document, a Word document opens up and all the pages are
available. My question is: Is there any way that the Word document can be
opened up when the form opens up, so the user doesn't have to double click on
the document to make all the pages available.

Any help would be appreciated
 
I am just a mid-level VBA programmer, and was hoping that something might be
available using just VBA and Access. I hesitate to get involved with C++ if
I can possible help it

The control was written in C++, your programming will be simple VBA:

Private Sub cmdOpenFile_Click()
Me.ControlName.Open Me.txtPath
End Sub

Arvin:

I am not sure I understand the code you sent. What do I put in the
"txtpath" portion of the code. Since it's an embedded document, I don't
think the original textpath of the word document applies any more. Is this
the test path to some code that I must import into the system? If it is, I'm
not sure how to include it with a run-time version of Access when I sent it
to my clients.

Let me know your thoughts when you have a chance. Thanks
