How to open a report into a word template

[Poobear1929]

I was wondering if it is possible to open a report in word using a template. Some of my formating on my report isn't making it when I publish it in word. So is there some code I could use telling access it open it in word using a specific word template. Or if anyone has a better idea on how I can handle this. I don't want my users to have to add in the graphics and underline my colums just because access drops that when it is published into word.

Thank You

Did you look at a Mail merge with Word and Access as the database to the Word document.
you can also merge to an Access query which points to a text box on a form to norrow down the the merge to the exact record you need.
I think there is an FAQ somewhere in these Access forums that explains it.
