I have an Access DB with a field containing a Word doc as an embedded object.

I think I can retrieve the contents but I can't seem to figure out how to

populate them into the body of the message in VBA. I've seen a few postings

on this subject and I seem to be missing how to actually populate the body.

Any ideas? TIA.....
 
Once you have your Word.Document object, you can use the technique shown at

This is working well. Now, I need to be able to add data from tables/forms in

addition to the Word data. When I try to add to the body the Word data

disappears, so I'm guessing I need a way to add the data I want to the Word

doc before it gets posted to the note.

TIA.

That's probably the best way to do it, to preserve formatting, etc.

I agree. Problem is, I have no idea how to do it. How would I take a field in

a form (or a table) and copy it into the Word doc generated by the code below:

Forms!fcp_new!wire.Verb = 0

Forms!fcp_new!wire.Action = 7

Forms!fcp_new!wire.Object.Application.ActiveDocument.Content.Select

Forms!fcp_new!wire.Object.Application.Selection.Range.Copy

Forms!fcp_new!wire.Action = 9

wd.ActiveDocument.SaveAs "L:\Operate1\ELPD_Middle_Office_Reports\OTC

Payments\eos.doc"

Set doc = wd.Documents.Open("L:\Operate1\ELPD_Middle_Office_Reports\OTC

Payments\eos.doc")

wd.Selection.Range.Paste

wd.ActiveDocument.SaveAs "L:\Operate1\ELPD_Middle_Office_Reports\OTC

Payments\eos.doc"

End If

which takes data from an OLE object in a table and copies it into a Word

doc, which then gets posted to the body using

Set itm = doc.MailEnvelope.Item

TIA......

Instead of wd.Selection.Range.Paste, you can use:

wd.Selection.Range.InsertAfter "some text"

or

wd.Selection.Range.InsertAfter some_string_variable_value

Also, the Word macro recorder can be your friend in these situations to show

the useful methods for a given scenario.
