Thanks Razzak,
Now I remember, Paul Dewey also reminded me because I once showed him how to do it.
Another senior moment -- but it all comes back.

I am pretty sure I did this before, many years ago, but I can't remember
how. Can someone show me how to import a word doc as a report template.


Here's how:

01. Save the .docx or .doc file as .rtf

02. While in Report Designer, use the "Rich Text Control" to import the
    entire .rtf file with an option to Mail Merge.

03. If you need to Mail Merge, make sure to check the option for MailMerge
    and Stretch.

    For a sample application to demonstrate the use of such feature, take
    a look at:

    Topic: Using the Rich Text Control for Mail Merge in R:BASE 7.x and
    Turbo V-8 for Windows

04. Make sure that you are using the latest version and updates of R:BASE
    7.6, Turbo V-8, or R:BASE eXtreme 9.0.

Very Best R:egards,
