Balu,

You're going to explain further.

I'm still not 100% sure if you wish to store word files in your db or just
vast amounts of text to be used to create word documents?

You mention Ms Word options...??? Which ones? What exactly are you trying
to do?

Explain more so we can help,

It can hold 2 GByte if you fill it programmatically.

But what you're asking is "How do I convert Microsoft Access into Microsoft
Word". They are different programs, with different requirements and different
capabilities!

What are you trying to ACCOMPLISH in the real world? I think you're going
about it in the wrong way! If you want to write a book, write it in Word or in
Publisher - *not* in Access, which isn't designed for that task. You can
certainly store information *about* the book in Access, and even link to the
Word or Publisher document - but you're on the wrong track trying to write the
book itself in a database program!
