Report Linking Issue

Many records in my table have a field linked to its own 1 page word document.
When creating a report, how do I get the report to display the word document
for each record, and not just the link?

Mike:

When using a link, you can't display the object within a report. To do
that you'd have embed to document in an OLE field within your table and then
use an OLE control to display the Word doc (limited to one page only
documents).

You have to put a Word object on the report (insert object)

Then you can use code in the format event to set the source
document on each page.

The word object will only display the part of the document
that is visible (normally, part of the first page). To get
it to display more, you would have to go to the next page
of the report, load the same document, and use automation
to make the word document display the second page, and so
on.

Does anyone have a code already in place that will do something like this?
Thanks

Hi Devid,

I think I finally find a right person can resolve my problem:)

My problem is the word object will only display the first page of the
document. I'd like to know how to "use automation to make the word document
display the second page, and so on".

Thanks a lot,
Shouming
