Input Info Into Word Documents Using Access Information
May 10, 2006Hi. I have been asked to find out if it is possible to automatically insert info from a access database into some word documents that require the same info i.e. a title or reference number so that, for example, if the title is changed in the database it will automatically change in the associated word documents.
Is this even possible as I have no idea or can something similar be done?
Thanks for any ideas!
Exporting From Word To Access
Nov 7, 2007Hi,
I'm new to this forum and it's my first post, any help is greatly appreciated.
I have just been given a big project of firstly transferring information we hold in word documents over to Ms Access and then using ASP or .NET I got to make this a searchable, more user friendly web page displaying the information from the database.
I have tried searching on the web but have not found anything that can transfer information from a table in a word document to a table in Ms Access, does anyone know of anything out there that allows this to be done without losing any data in the transfer?
I have tried saving the document as a text file and importing it into Access but it did not transfer the data across correctly.
A Little Help On Opening Word Documents Please
Jun 9, 2006Hi all,
Sorry but I'm really new to Access and trying to make sense of all the useful advice on here!
I'm trying to programme a button in one of my forms to open up a word document as read-only. I've written the code to open up the Word application (before I found the button which did it for me! :( ) but I think I need to add one or two more lines so that word knows where the document is I want and opens it up - any ideas what these lines are?
Real sorry for the trouble - any help would be most appreciated! Thanks guys and girls.
Open Hyperlinked Word Documents As Read Only
Mar 22, 2014I have a database with hyperlinks to open word documents on my network. If someone else has that word document open it will ask me if I want to notify or open in read only. However since upgrading to Access 2013, (from Access 2003), this sometimes freezes the database.
I am wandering is there a way to tell Access (or Word) to open the document in read only if there is someone using it already?

Calling A Query Using .mde Files And Merged Word Documents.
Jan 17, 2007Hi,
My situation:
A front end written in Access (back end mySQL).
I have made a .mde file out of this front end.
There are a number of MS Word documents used (as merge documents) for running reports and letters that are linked to queries in the database. However, I can only link these documents to the original .MDB file as you can't link to the queries ni the .mde file.
This works fine until you have a query that requires a parameter from a form. The user will have selected the parameter from the .mde version of the front end that they are using but the query which is being called from the .mdb version (by the Word merge document) can't see this parameter because it is a totally separate database.
How can I get around this problem?
Sorry this is a lengthy post, hope it makes sense.

View 1 Replies View RelatedAccess Selected Record Ouput To Word
Jan 15, 2008Hi all!
I am new to the scene, please forgive me if my question or language seems silly
I have this Access 2000 database filled with over 1500 records of people
I need to send these people letters based on their age and gender
I guess I would normally do the gender thing with a mergefield in Word, it'll simply create "Madam" or "Sir" upon an if...then instruction on genderdata in the database. The problem is, there's not two, but there's three options! I'll explain below.
The first option is for kids < 12 y
The second option is for kids > 12 but < 18 AND their parents
The third option is for adults (>18)
So, in fact there's three letters.
Now, what I need a code -or at least the concept- that will tell the database to select and open the right letter by pressing a button in a form.
I can of course make three hyperlinks in the form, one for each letter, and let the user choose, but that's not too fancy is it?
I want the database to make the choice. So, I guess in normal language the instruction needs to select the current record, analyse the age (date-dob) and, depending on the result of that calcultion, it needs to open the correct document in Word.
But here's the point: I'm quite unfamiliar with VBA code
But maybe even a conceptual answer might help!
Thanks in advance!
