Through a command button using a hyperlink my app opens a Word doc and populates the merge fields. The problem is that if someone opens the Word doc (without going through the database) and makes any amendments it destroys the hyperlink.
You can make amendments if you access the Word doc through the database and save it without any problems, it only happens if they open the Word doc directly.
Is there anyway that I can a) Restrict access or b) use something that will automatically restore the hyperlink
The b) option (if it exists) would be very useful to search and locate a Word doc if the user decides to move the file to another folder/location
All contributions/ideas will be gratefully received
