Inserting Word Doc as OLE Object

A

Angus

I am not able to insert a word doc as an ole object into a
table. It allows me to insert pictures. I have Access
2000 and Word 2002. The error is "A problem occurred
while DB was communicating with the OLE server or ActiveX
Control. Close the Ole Server and restart it outside of
DB. Then try the original operation again in DB." Since
my microsoft programs are different versions (2000 vs 2002)
I wonder if there is a backwards compatibility issue with
Access communicating with a newer version of word? Does
anyone have any idea how to associate Word with the OLE
server for Access?
