Question: How can I launch Microsoft Word from an Access 2003/XP/2000/97 database?
Answer: From your Access database, you can launch any application that you wish.
Specifically, you could open a session of Microsoft Word by pasting the following VBA code into your Access database:
Private Sub Command1_Click() Dim oApp As Object Set oApp = CreateObject("Word.Application") oApp.Visible = True End Sub
In this example, we've created a button called Command1. When the user clicks this button, the VBA code will create and open a session of Microsoft Word.
