displaying text in a form

[Flick]

I'd like to know if it is possible to display a WORD (or other) document in a form, with the ability to scroll through the file. I have had a brief look at inserting bound and unbound objects, but this only allows me to display the text in a static form. The size of the object box limits the amount of text shown, and it is merely an 'image' of the text.
Apologies if this is a question with a ridiculously simple/obvious answer. Assistance would be appreciated.
Cheers.

You could use the RichTx32.ocx "Microsoft Rich Text Control, version 6.0 (SP4)" ActiveX control to display Rtf files on a form.

This ActiveX is supplied with VB6 but don't think it is bundled with MsAccess or MsOffice.

Here's another quick one related to the use of the RichTx32.ocx "Microsoft Rich Text Control, version 6.0 (SP4)" ActiveX control to display Rtf files on a form.
Is is possible to add hyperlinks within the rtf file?
