making a work order form new database

[Chip Smith]

i would like to make a database that could hold information like a customers
name, address, phone, etc. then within the database either by button or thru
word, have it dump that information into a workorder or purchase order
template i've already made. and then after the workorder had been created and
saved, have that file associated with that customer in the database either in
a new field or by clicking on the customer and bringing up all the associated
documents

"Associated documents": that's made real easy by the new A2007
(*.accdb) Attachment data type.

If you want to manipulate Word documents, you may need to read up on
Word Automation.
