Emmitt,
If I were to go the route of having a path to my WORD documents, would the example below work? I will create the table DocInstructions and have these columns: MODEL InstructionPath BLA6A27V4 S:\JPBAssyInst\Bla5a27v4.doc Both would be text fields. Any comments?

If you're talking about a lot of documents, store them in a subfolder and, within R:BASE, just store the path to the doc.

At present we can print them from a form I created that uses the LAUNCH command. Can I import these documents into a table within RBASE and if I can what data type would I use? Jim I am using the latest version of 7.6.
