open a word template from access

[Karen Skipper]

Can anyone help with this?

I'm trying to open a Word Template from a button in Access. I am running
Windows 2000 Pro with Office 2000 Pro.

You can use a macro and associated it with a button on
your form
In the macro
use "RunApp'
the command line will read
"winword.exe location" "file name"
example
"C:\Program Files\Microsoft
Office\Office\WINWORD.EXE" "c:/my documents/test.doc"
