Hello to anybody who can help! I'm putting together a
report that is a collection of word documents; I'm able
to run the report, but for the word documents that are
more than one page they terminate after one page of
information. Is there a way to set the length of a word
document being printed in a report? The report comes
from a simple table of word documents that vary from 1
page to 5 pages in length. The query sorts the word
documents then the report publishes them in order. All
is is fine except for the fact you can only see the first
full page of the word document. Any help would be
greatly appreciated.

It sounds, from your description, like you've embedded the Word documents in
Access. Another approach would be to add a field that holds a
path/filename to the Word documents, then, when you wish to print out a
selection, run a query on the table to get the paths, and use code to
open/print the file to which the path points.
