Hi Antonio,

I've accomplished something similiar by writing the data to a text file.  I
then wrote an AutoOpen macro in Word that read the text file and put the data
in the desired places in the Word document.  The Word macro had logic that
deleted the text file after it had applied the data.  It only attempts to
apply the data if the text file was found.  (This is so it doesn't reapply
the same data everytime the document opens).  I realize this isn't an elegant
solution, or a correct one, but it works.  In the absence of better advice,
it might be an interim solution to help you meet your deadline.

Good Luck
Bart
