I have a table with 3 fields, author, title and reference.&nbsp;&nbsp;What I would ultimately like to be able to do is publish these in word so that I can use them as a Reference section for Publications.&nbsp;&nbsp;I've set up a Query and Report to select only the records I want.&nbsp;&nbsp;<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;At the moment when I publish the report in a Word document I'm left with quite a bit of formatting to do.&nbsp;&nbsp;It would simplify matters if I could have the fields combine so that they aren't separated by returns in the word document. <br>Can anyone suggest a way I can do this?&nbsp;&nbsp;Or an alternative method to reach my goal?<br>Thank you.
 
you could create an unbound textbox with a control source of:<br><br><b><br>=[author]& &quot;, &quot; & [title] & &quot;, &quot; & [reference]<br></b><br><br>this will display like<br><br>Author, Title, Reference<br><br><br> <p>Brian Famous<br><a href=mailto:bfamous@ncdoi.net>bfamous@ncdoi.net</a><br><a href= > </a><br>
