Export Report to Word

[4charity]

What is the best way to go about export a report to word?

The end users will be choosing which customer/invoice info they want in
Access, as well as which letter should be generated.

I would like them to click a button and have the info transported to a word
document, which they can edit if necessary.

I have looked at doing it both by creating a report in Access and sending it
to word, and creating a MailMerge in Word and pulling the info from Access.

I have run into problems with both tries, and want to get a good solid idea
of the best approach, some pointers on code, and I can take it from there.

Thanks.

Export as rtf works pretty well.

FWIW, there's an example of creating an invoice in Word from data from
Access. Then you can modify it any way you want.
