Hi
I'd like to create a report with text running in a curve (for CD labels).
Normally I'd create the wordart in word/excel then paste it into my report but I want the text of the wordart to be taken from a form. I would guess the easiest way to do this would be to programmatically open word, create the wordart using the text a user enters in the form, embed it into the report, then close word.
My knowledge of VBA is basic but I know how to create the wordart programmatically - I'm not clear how I would then insert it into the report (or if there's a much easier way than what I'm suggesting).
Any help greatly appreciated.
