Importing a report from Word

Hi;
We have some tables with a complex format that are drawn in some Microsoft
Word files.Each word document contais just 1 design that i need convert all
of it as 1 report.Redesigning them takes a long time for me.
In the other hand when i try to Select AllCopy each of them and paste in a
blank Access report,it places on the report as an OLE object so its lay out
would be fixed and i cant handle it or put a text box,label or any other
control on it.(Then i have to bind the report to a table,and an OLE object
is a single control so i can do nothing with it).
Is there a way to bring a previously designed table on a word document, to
an Access Report so that i can put some bound controls on it?
Thank you in advance for your help.

import the Word-file into a Access table and then create query/report.

The word file is composed from some lines or rectangles.This is the lay out
of a report.There is no data in the file.How to import lines into a table?
Thank you for your attention.

You can't import lines into a table. Tables contain data and nothing else.

Can you not produce a report with those same lines?

The report has a standard lay out and shape,given to me as a .doc format.
What i want is to use that drawn shape on an Access report,rather than
redesign it that takes a long time for me.But it sounds like its not
possible to bring a drawn shape ( i mean a table borders) from a word file
to an Access report.
Thank you.
