I would like to publish a report from Access to Word and have it bring
over the lines and graphics that I have inserted into the report. Is
there any other way to do this when I merdge it to Word it always does
it in a .rtf format. I don't want to Mail Merdge I would just like to
convert my report to a .doc format. Please Help

The *only* built in export format that retains graphical elements is
Snapshot Format. You can use third party software to create a PDF file as
an alternative.

Stephan Lebans has a free utility that takes the Snapshot Format output and
embeds it inside an RTF file. While still not fully editable, it can at
least be opened with any software that can open an RTF file.
