Embedding PDF file in Access report.

[BazStar]

Maybe I'm missing something, but I want to convert a whole heap of Word documents (actually maps) into PDF format, and then link them into a database. The maps are then to be embedded into a report. However when this is done, only the Adobe icon displays. How do you activate the underlying document so it is displayed as an OLE within the Access report. I have searched for an ocx/add-in that might do the job, but without any luck so far. And I would rather not turn the entire report into a PDF form. I would appreciate any help on this one!
