Default Link word to webpage

Is there any possibility of linking a word document (office 2007) to a
webpage, similar to what you can do with Excel? I need to send out a daily
report to the crews in the field, and I would like to add weather
information. However, I would like the "weather forecast" section to update
automatically based on information linked to a webpage. I know I can cut and
paste the information, but I really don't want to do that. (what fun is
that?).

Thanks.

Word is not a browser so it cannot display internet information in real
time. If the 'crews in the field' have access to the internet (which
presumably they do or your question would be pointless) then if you want
this type of information to appear in your document, why not create the
document as a web page which the crews can access?
