I don't know. I do it like this: I save a Word document as HTML, and set the
htmlText of a field to that file:
on mouseUp
ask "The name of the field:"
put it into mFieldName
answer file "Open HTML doc:"
if the result is "Cancel" then exit mouseUp
set the htmlText of field mFieldName to the htmlText of field mFieldName
& url ("file:" & it) -- so that you keep earlier (formatted) contents of the
field
end mouseUp
