Default Fill Word Forms with Access data

Hi,

I have a word document with 8 form fileds. I need to fill those fields with
data from access and generate the word document. One of the office is 2003
and another is Office XP. Can anyone help me with the coding.

regards,

Mosaddeq Aziz

Default Fill Word Forms with Access data

Take a look at the information referred to in the following post from
fellow MVP, Albert Kallal.

Actually, use my merge sample. it don't give that warning, and you don't
have to change registiry stuff etc.

The sample I have can be found he
http://www.members.shaw.ca/AlbertKal.../msaccess.html

What is nice/interesting about my sample is that is specially designed to
enable ANY form with ONE LINE of code....

Thus, each time you build a new form, you can word merge enable it with
great ease.

Make sure you read the instructions from above, and you should eventually
get to the follwoing page
http://www.members.shaw.ca/AlbertKal...rge/page2.html


Note that the merge can also use a query, and thus you don't have to merge
just "one" record..

After the merge occurs, you get a plain document WITHOUT any merge fields,
and this allows the end user to save, edit, or even email the document
(since the merge fields are gone after the merge occurs).

Give the above a try.
