I have a Word 2000 document that is emailed at periodic
times to people in our company. My task is to take that
document and import data into an Access 2000 db. Now,
this .doc does not have bookmarks, fields or any merge
features to begin with. I know that I can insert bookmarks
via Access and pull the data over. But the information I
need can appear anywhere in the .doc. This data has file
extensions and some has a prefix used to identify acct.
numbers. Knowing this, I can specify what Access needs to
look for by pattern matching and string parsing (ie.
leading spaces and punctuation). My question is, can I
dynamically insert bookmarks based on the values that I
assign to string variables? From here I can eliminate
incorrect data through a query and all should be *fine*.
Thanks for any help you can provide.
