    Command button to get a Word document


    Hi,

    I am using Excel 2002 currently I have workbook that has 6 different types
    of worksheet all of the worksheet consist of data input and formulas except
    for 1 worksheet. The examiners are auditing our clients inventory. The one
    worksheet (Client letter) that the examiners use is sort of predefined
    letter where they typed up information The letter can vary from industires,
    Manufacturing, Retail, etc. Basily we copy and paste the template from the
    bottom of the Client's letter. The problem with that is Excel is not MS
    Word. I am wondering what is the best way I tackle this problem? I have
    about 5 different letter types and I would like to keep everything in Excel.
    I believe I can add a Word control, but how do I add the various industries.
    Do I need to have 5 different command buttons to open up Word?. Any tips or
    help or website to go for an example will be appreciated. Thank you.

    You could use a form with a radiobutton(with 5 elements) and a commandbutton
    the user has to choose which lettertype he wants and click the button.

    I would use a single combo box drop to select the industry along with a
    single command button like "Create Letter" on a docked toolbar, if you know
    how to do that.
