    Unhappy Select a Word Document to be filled with the information.HELP

    Hello friends. I'm starter in VBA and Access, i'm trying to make a combobox or some way to select on form Word documents that are on some location on HD. Like, i select the document on the list and put the informations that i have on Access and generate the complete document. Can someone help me, give some tips or example file?

    the table would have all your documents, a name & path
    user selects the doc via listbox or combo,
    put a button to begin the 'merge'
    then use the doc path to run your function

    Can you explain more details? I don't know how select the documents via listbox, this is why i'm asking. I'll need a VB code? Macro? like, my documents are in a folder at C:// . Or i can put in a table? I'm really confused.

    Do you wish to have access get the names of all the word documents on your c:/documents/anyfolder

    Or do you want to put that into a table and update the table if you need to.
