Text Export

[Luke]

I am trying to export the text from a single field within
a form to a word document. I would like to add a button
to the form that collects the text from the specified
field and opens it in to a word document.
Will i need to biuld a macro to do this or is there
something biult in i can use?

Any help greatly appreciated

You should do this using VBA coding.

Hi Luke,

As Turtle says, this is a job for VBA Automation. The following articles
should get you started:
