Question : Print Word 2003 document from Access 2003 form with contents of current record.

Hi Experts,

Problem:  Create button that prints a word document with information from the current record.
Programs:  MS Access 2003 and Word 2003

What I have so far:

A button with a click event (I've added line numbers):

1.  Private Sub Command61_Click()
2.     Dim objWord As Word.Document
3.     Set objWord = GetObject("C:\MyMerge.doc", "Word.Document")
4.     ' Make Word visible.
5.     objWord.Application.Visible = True
6.     ' Set the mail merge data source as the RCIMS database.
7.     objWord.MailMerge.OpenDataSource _
8.      Name:="C:\Documents and Settings\epack\My Documents\Access Databases\RCIMS.mdb", _
9.          LinkToSource:=True, _
10.          Connection:="Table Contacts", _
11.         SQLStatement:="SELECT * From [Contacts] WHERE ContactID" = Me.ContactID
12.     ' Execute the mail merge.
13.     objWord.MailMerge.Execute
14.  End Sub

What happens:

1.  When the button is clicked the word document is opened (it has merge data from when I created the document).
2.  I close the document and get a window:

Run time error "13":
Type Mismatch

When I select debug the code appears with lines 7-11 highlighted and an arrow on line 11.

Based on what I'm finding I'm pretty close (hopefully)...

But I've been out of the coding world a while an obviously am missing something...LOL.

Thanks!

Ed.

Answer : Print Word 2003 document from Access 2003 form with contents of current record.

change this line

SQLStatement:="SELECT * From [Contacts] WHERE ContactID" = Me.ContactID

to

SQLStatement:="SELECT * From [Contacts] WHERE ContactID = " & Me.ContactID

assuming contactID is number type of data

if text use this

SQLStatement:="SELECT * From [Contacts] WHERE ContactID = '" & Me.ContactID &"'"
