Hi all,
I have created a Word template - when a user opens a document based on that template a form appears with info to fill in. When they fill it in and click OK the form populates a table on the document.
I've now been asked to create a database of these forms (well, the info that appears on them).
So basically I was wondering how to save data from the Word form into an existing Access database.
If someone could point me in the right direction in terms of what I should be looking for on the net, or if there is an article or kbase item on this site (I started looking but couldn't see anything) that'd be great - I understand it's not just a case of a few simple methods but more complicated than that, but I don't know where to start.
Thanks,
