Read word form from access

[Jim D]

I need to read the data in a word form field from access
and store it in a table with VBA. The form fields are
bookmarked but I can't figure out how to get the data
from the field. Some of the fields are check box fields
and the others are text fields. Any help is greatly
appreciated.

Thanks
Jim

Jim,


Here is an article on MSDN that explains how to do this:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dnimo01/html/imo1200.asp

At the top of this article, you will see the text:
This article may contain URLs that were valid when originally published, but now link to
sites or pages that no longer exist. To maintain the flow of the article, we've left these
URLs in the text, but disabled the links.

I have a copy of the download that went with this article. It doesn't appear to be
available any longer at the MSDN site. If you'd like the download, send a message to me
that includes a valid e-mail address. Include something like "download for Import Data
Directly from Word Forms to Access TablesImport Data Directly from Word Forms to Access
Tables", so that I'll know exactly which file you want.

Tom
