Hey, is there a easy way to open a Word document that has merged fields in it and connect it to a current record in a form.

Say I have a tenant and I want to send him/her a specific letter (like a late rent letter), I want to use the access data in the form to show up in the Word document to automate the whole procedure, I know it's possible from Word, but I want to open and merge the document from an access form!

Thanks,

Richard
 
This looks old, but I would recommend recreating the word document as a report, then you can just set the report up and go.

Just a thought if you are just looking to merge 1 record at a time.
