I have created a cutom toolbar with buttons that will open various templates that are mail merge documents and each template has a different MS Access table as its source.

I have tried making the hyperlink for these files using both the Open and New Commands but either way, it always opens the actual dot file and not a document (doc) based on the template.



How can I get the button to create a new document (doc) based on the template and therefore showing the merged data?

Thank you.
