I have Word 2003. I have a RPT file (Crystal Reports-generated, I think)
which needs to be imported and formatted. It is in "space-delimited" format,
with a layout like this:

************************************************************
Comp    Date      Warr#            AMT  ACCOUNT DESCRIPTION

XYZ      1/2/2004 22614105   195.36   TOOLS & EQUIP UNDER $1000
                                               190.08   TOOLS & EQUIP UNDER
$1000
                                               190.08    TOOLS & EQUIP
UNDER $1000
                                                95.04     REPAIR & MNTNCE
SUPPLIES
                                                179.52   TOOLS & EQUIP
UNDER $1000
************************************************************

It is "space-delimited," meaning that rather than having commas or tab stops
between each field/column, it's a bunch of spaces.

The tricks:

(1) It needs to be imported into Word, formatted to look like that
(2) It needs to end up in as "plain" a format as possible--not in table
format, rich text etc
(3) It's okay if "XYZ" and date etc information doesn't repeat when it
doesn't change
(4) The biggie--a macro (in Visual Basic I assume) needs to do all that with
the click of a button

I am able to write Visual Basic all day long in Access, and I can do simple
ones in Word--but funky ones like this in Word, it's beyond me.

Where are some websites which can explain how? Anyone have any ideas
themselves?
