Printing a Word document

[Access Virgin]

I have a report that needs to be sent out to a client. The report is in 2 parts, the first part is produced from information stored in my database, the second part is a lengthy Word document. I was wondering if it's possible to print the Word document from the Access form where I will be printiing the first part of the report? It will save users having to spend time going out of Access, finding where the document is stored and then printing it out.

Can this be done???

AV,

See Dave's example on this thread:

He doesn't explicitly print the word doc, but once you have the
REFERENCE set, you should be able to explore the object module and
find the syntax to print it.

Hi Wayne,

I've looked through his example and can't find a way to print a document.

I will keep trying, but if anyone has done this before please let me know.

Thanks,

Ryan
