    is it possible to integrate word to access 2007


    Hi guys I'm wondering if it's possible to integrate word 2007 to access 2007. I downloaded this template "Customer Service Support" from the Microsoft site and one table of this database represent "Knowledge Base" now I'm thinking to write the Topic in Access and the solution I will provide a link, and this link should open the word file which is saved in our server. Do you think this is possible?
    Thanks for your help

    Access supports hyperlinks.

    thanks RuralGuy as I'm not really good in programming, i have to ask you this... do i need to put this on VBA code in ms access 2007?
    sorry i didn't understand the code you sent.
    is this for opening of file or something from Access to Word?
    I'm using MS Office 2007 by the way?

    tintin,

    You've posted a few different threads today about the same MS template you downloaded. If you want an honest opinion...if you're lost working with that template, integrating Access to Word is going to frustrate you even more. The code that Ruralguy sent to you can be copied and pasted verbatim into a module but if you don't know what to do with it anyway, it's not going to work.

    You really need to learn at least a little bit about the program you're working with before attempting things like this.

    thanks ajetrumpet, that is why I'm here to ask your help.
    what would be the next step to do.
    if you will tell me to learn a little bit about the program yes I had.
    I have a background of the access. but the problem is what will I do next.

    I appreciate your honesty, but it doesn't really help if you just say you have to learn because that's what I'm doing now "Learning"....

    Both links should go in a Standard Module named basTest.
