Import Word Doc as Report in Access

[jeisch]

We have various reports used by an Access application that change frequently. The person who will be maintaining these reports does not know Access. So, I would like to set up a procedure to open Word from Access (already done), create and/or allow modifications to the report in Word (already done), save the report in Word (already done), then -- and here's the part I need help on -- use the Word document to create a new report in my Access application.

I can use the mouse and menu commands Insert; Object; Create from File; etc. to create an unbound OLE Object with the Word document. But, I would like to automate this procedure using VBA. Does anyone out there know how to do this? I would like to stay away from SendKeys, if possible.

Thanks for any help you can offer.
