Oh...OK....I guess I thought that's what you were doing all along LOL Glad it worked out. Linda F.

When I linked these documents to the Access db I used the db as the source. Since I didn't explicitly link to the query the documents were linked to the table. I just tried a small experiment where I created a document and linked to the query before inserting any fields and it worked just fine. Your notes got me thinking. Thanks for the help. ric ************************************************************* You are receiving this mail because you subscribed to mso@xxxxxxxxxxxxx or MicrosoftOffice@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To send mail to the group, simply address it to mso@xxxxxxxxxxxxx To Unsubscribe from this group, send an email to mso-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the word "unsubscribe" (without the quotes) in the subject line.
