I have an access query set up to run a mail merge on a word doc. When the word doc opens it asks for the Employee ID that I want to run the merge on. Which word doc that I open is dependent upon who the employee is. For example, if I wanted to run the merge on "Richrd" I would open Richard.doc and enter the specific ID I want to view. What I am wanting is to build a C# form, that I can enter the employee's name, and enter the ID that I am wanting to view and the C# form, will open the word doc and pass the id to the prompt so that the word doc auto merges.

The access query asks for the ID as a prompt when it runs, that's why I want to just put it in a textbox on the form, so it takes no human intervention, and then pass the employeename to let the button know which file to open.

Can someone point me in the direction as how to get started on this? Or if further information is needed, please ask!!
