Final answer:

To have a Word document open automatically after exporting an Access report, insert a check mark in the indicated checkbox within the Export - RTF File dialog box. This is separate from accepting or rejecting changes in Word, which is done via the Review tab.

Step-by-step explanation:

When exporting an Access report to a Word document through the Export - RTF File dialog box, you have the option to open the Word document automatically after the export process is completed. To do this, you need to insert a check mark in the checkbox that typically says 'Open the destination file after the export operation is complete' or a similar phrase indicating this action. It's important to note that to accept or reject changes in a Word document, you would open the document and click the Review tab above the tools ribbon, but this is a separate functionality from the automatic opening feature used during the export from Access.
