Linking Access to a Word document

[Guest]

Hi,

I want to link a word document to my database. I want to be able to type the
contact details into one table then use those details to create my contract
in Word.

Any ideas?

Thanks

The most common ways of doing this are quite unstable, but Albert Kallal has
a solution here that may do what you want:

Scroll down to the section titled:
Super Easy Word Merge

Where possible, my own preference is to do the whole thing in Access. It's
quite easy to create a report that looks like a letter. Even better in
Access 2007 where rich text is allowed.
