Is it possible to have a button on my switchboard or even my form that will
publish a table into word. Right now I am closeing my form and then clicking
on the table that i want to publish and then using the tool bar to publish it.

Thanks

Which tool do you use to publish it? You may be able to do what you
want to do via actions in a Macro, and to link that Macro to a button on
the Switchboard.

However, if you're running a Wizard (such as the one that sets up a Word
"Mail Merge" document), you won't save yourself much effort, as the
wizard will require manual inputs from you as it runs.

Thanks for the insight, I will see what I can do with the Macro.

Even if the Macro allows you to do only some of what you need, it might
take care of the bulk of the work, and you might write a short function
in VBA that you can call (using RunCode) from the Macro to do the rest.
