Storing Word Documents in Access

[AcDawson]

Thank you!

How do I create a button on a form that opens a Word document that is stored within Access?


Thank you!

Have a look at the "Solutions"-page of the Word-for-Access-Wizard at www.unsoftwareag.com.

You can set a hyperlink path to the document.

I store the pathname as a string and use the FollowHyperlink method to open the file much like Keiths suggestion.

if you need a copy of a file that shows this in action, please e-mail me with the request and I'll be happy to oblige.
