Quick Merge to Printer

[Guest]

I have a query that I print via a MS Word mail merge. I was trying to make a
button that would open up the document, automatically merge the records in
the document to the printer, and then close Word. Apparantly that is more
difficult than it would seem though, even for Office 2003 Professional.

Is there a way to do this straight from Access? Or can a macro be made in
Word instead to handle this?

Thanks!

You should be able to do this in Word. Try this: start recording a macro,
run through the steps manually, close the macro and go into the VBA editor to
view the code. See if that will work for you.
