Is it possible to add a menu option to MS Winword 2002, via programming (vba, or visual basic) like the "Save as HTML" in the File menu, that connects to an internet database (SQL Server 2000) and inserts the working document into the db?
If something like this can be implemented, then we can give the option to our clients to continue writing their documents in ms word, and update their site with a simple "save article" option.
To do something like this i think we need:
- code (exe file /setup?) to automatically add the option to the menu
- VBA code that connects to a remote SQL Server database and inserts the word document as a database record (with some extra data for example a category id, or title which can be the first line of the word document or it's filename etc...)

Any suggestions how to do it?
Thanx in advance.
