Would you consider making an Access form for getting the data, and then automatically fill the form in Word, or even easier, to create a report just like that form?

Anything to make the user friendly and easy while still updating the database

I agree with zipa72,
this was my recommendation too here:

jaymz69 have 2 Qs for the same concept:
https://www.experts-exchange.com/questions/23578207/Add-a-macro-to-open-a-form-in-word.html
https://www.experts-exchange.com/questions/23576588/Start-Access-App-but-use-a-Word-form-to-send-to-database.html
In both, the same recommendations were given,
but the author didn't come back with further questions or ask for details.
I therefore don't think these Qs are eligible for PAQ/Refund OR Delete/Refund.
