Populate listbox from another file

[JT]

I want to say thanks to Peter and Doug the another day
helping me with the code for populating a listbox with
data from another file in a table.

I have another question:
The word template that I am setting up is going to be used
by many other people within my organisation who doesn't
have access to the network that I save the data file in. .
I am afraid that the little program won't work. Is this
true?
The templatea are going to be loaded onto our coy's
Intranet, can the code
Set sourcedoc = Documents.Open
(FileName:="e:\worddocs\Clients.doc")
make reference to an URL instead of a file directory?

One way around it is to use FTP in batch mode, using Print# statements
to build the batch file, and shell to call it. FTP gets the file and
xfers locally, then you can reference it as a local file. Messy.
