Default import word doc/letter into Access report

I found these instructions about important word documents to become Access reports. However, it says nothing about importing a word document that already has mail merge fields linked to an Access table. If I imported that, woudld the field links get broken?

pen the Report in Design View.
Select the Report's Detail Section.
Click on Insert == Object.
Select Create from File.
Do 'not' check the Link or Display as Icon Options.
Click on the Browse Button.
Select the appropriate Word Document (*.doc).
Click OK in the Browse Dialog Box.
Click OK in the Insert Object Dialog Box.
Your Word Document is now embedded in the Detail Section of your Report.
