Exporting Data and Bookmarks

Friends, I have a problem with my Access database when trying to
export data from a form to a Word file.
I use a form to store data in a table. Both table and form are named
CONTACT.
I use a Module to export data into a Word document. I use bookmarks in
Word and have noticed that although I have set my table's field
properties to Capital Letters (>), is type the text into the field on
my form, when I exported to my Word file, it is exported in small
letters. This is strange since after that I type the data in my
fields, the text is automatically converted to Capital Letters.

Any Explanation?

Using > is for viewing only. You could use a query to convert the
data to capital letters using UCase$([FieldName]) and base your export
on that.

Thanks for your reply. This is something new to me. I reall did not
know tha the > was for view only. At this point since the development
of my database if too far ahead to create queries etc. Is there
another way that I can force entries in my tables to be done in
capital letters? Let's say perhaps via code? Do you have some sample
or can give me a help?
Thanks.

I think there are several ways of doing this... you could format your
bookmarks in Word to be shown capitalized, or you could write some
code in the beforeInsert event of your forms that capitalized all the
text values on your forms (tedious). Personally, I'd use Word...

I am looking to export certain variables from ms access to ms word, Does anyone have any idea how this is done. So far my function collects data from two separate tables, and can open the word document that I need, but I am unable to figure out how to make it write the collected data to the new word document.

Hi all, Basically I want the data in an open form to merge with a word template and create a new document. So a user navigates to a particular records and presses a button "Produce Document" and access merges the current data with a template and up pops a "save as" box allowing the user to save their new document where ever.

Hi All (yet ANOTHER question) The reason for the merge is to create a Quote letter for the selected customer. It's working fine except for the contact address not showing. I have re-written the code, double checked the names and complied it. (I have attached a screen shot of the letter produced). All the other fields are merged into the letter fine but just not the 4 address lines?!! My code is as follows: Private Sub cmd_MailMerge_Click() ...
