publish a report to word template

[Chris]

I have a report which I can publish to a named word document. However the
final word document needs to have graphics etc in it that aren't being
published from the report. Is there any way I can publish to a template or
bring over graphics from a report to the rtf word file in the same format
hopefully?

Thanks

Chris:

You can, with some effort create a Word Mail merge template and pull your
data into Word from Access. You loose some of the flexability such as group
by etc. but that is the only way to have Word doc that maintains images.
On the other hand, if your goal is not to output a fully editable document
at the end, then output your report to either a Snapshot (Access' built in
image creator, requiring the user to have a snapshot viewer installed), or
to an Adobe PDF document; each of which will retain your graphics elements.
