Hi Fekru,

Try inserting the source document via an INCLUDETEXT field. To do this,
press Ctrl-F9 to create an empty field and input the details, so that the
field looks like:

{INCLUDETEXT "DRIVE:\\Path\\Filename.doc" \! }

Note the use of quote characters around the path and the use of double
backslashes for path separators.

See Word's help file for more information on the INCLUDETEXT field. You can,
for example, use a bookmark reference to import only a specified portion of
the source document.

Cheers
