Rocky,

I have a db that generates 500-1000 letters a week...I think there are about
30 different types of letters...but only 1 or 2 Reports in Access.  All of
the text from the letters is stored in a table.  I use some conditional
formatting on the report to change a few things depending on what type of
letter(change logo,greeting, ect).

Each letter includes specific info Name,Product, caseID...and such from a
query/table.  Its like a mail merge...but WORD is never used or referenced.
I never create a .doc, I just print from access.  This way...I don't have
any other files to keep up with...just the db...and now I have reports
like...this many letters of this type were printed on this day...yada yada
yada...

Wasn't sure if you were looking at something like this...or an actual
MSWord.doc.
