Merging/Linking Access to Word with the data source in Word

[breckan]

Greetings,

I am facing a bit of a connundrum as I am not sure how to proceed with an assigned project. I have set up a word document with forms so clients can fill it out online/through e-mail and electronically send it back; at this point, I need to be able to set something up where the forms will merge into a database created in Access. All the information I have found deals with doing a mail merge of access into Word; but that is not what I need. I need to merge word into access. Any suggestions/comments/etc. would be extremely helpful...Thank you!

Not a good use for WORD. Why not use EXCEL if you must?

You can store the Word .Doc files inside an Access table without bloating it with a special wizard.
