Sounds like you want to use a Bound or Unbound OLE object. (And there are probably other options available out there, but this ships with Access 97, which is where most of my experience comes from.) Depending on the properties settings, you can cut & paste or drag & drop to/from the form. Objects can often be activated within Access or outside of it -- depending on the OLE Verb you use (Open and Edit are two verbs that every or most OLE objects have; see help for the OLE objects, and pay attention to verb-related properties and methods). This is the quick answer to get you looking at the right place for the details.
