On occasion a user will want to add more comments than the field will allow. What do I do to do this:

1. Button to open Word and blank document
2. Add additional information for this record.
3. Close/Save with the Record case name and link to this record?
4. Button to open linked document and edit and save again - not changing the link.
5. Print case/record and the linked document together as a report?

Thank you!

Reference the Word object model within Access. You need to get a book on what properties and methods that are available with the Word object model that would allow you to manipulate an instance of Word to do what you describe. Microsoft has a bunch of them.
