    Copying currency values from Access to paste into Word

    The_Doc_Man, Thank you for your suggestion. If the user has just one doc opened at the time, I can see how that might work, especially since there is usually just one grid per letter. I'll explore this.

    Copying currency values from Access to paste into Word

    Thank you for your response MajP; however, the Word templates are generated from a completely different system and I cannot add code to them to read from Access or any other source. Regarding Access writing to Word, would it matter if the Word document has several paragraphs of other...

    Gun laws do they work

When behavior is being excused or justified by pointing blame at one's parents, job, traffic, computer games, media, fast food, alignment of stars, Hollywood, the taste of coffee on Tuesday...

    Recordset viewing/editing in forms
