Word Documents

I know Sesame can merge data into a Word document. Is there a way to call and print an existing Word document as part of a report?

Scenario: Application currently prints a report that often includes "A" picture for clarification. I have a task that is going to require 3-4 pictures. Rather than spread the task out over 3-4 records to get the needed pictures, I would like to call a Word document that has all needed pictures included.

Doable?

Thanks,
Fred

If you save the word doc as HTML, you can include it in a Sesame report using SBasic file I/O.

You may want to consider using a static image elements and settings their values dynamically to include three images without spanning three records.
