This function uses a combination of Microsoft Access, VBA, and Microsoft Excel to transfer the values from an Access form in PivotTable view to the clipboard. It is a good example of automation using late binding.

The Challenge

My goal was to automate the process …

Use a VBA function to open/get a Microsoft Word document and Find a string

This VBA function opens/gets a MS Word document and finds the next occurrence of a specific string. The function provides a good example of using late binding automation and the AppActivate() function.

One advantage of late binding (using generic objects, like objWd in the function)

Carl and Extra Mile Data was the easiest and quickest way to solve my MS Access problems. Our database is running properly, efficiently and faster after Carl made the necessary changes to fit our needs. He also taught me how to make any updates in the future making me more confident with our database. Extra Mile Data is highly recommended!

Carl at Extra Mile Data has been extraordinarily helpful to our companies. He applied his vast knowledge and patience to match to solving all of our complex database needs that we were unable to handle ourselves. He and his company were a tremendous find and will be used again and again as needed.

I was looking for a database solution for my business and I'm glad I found Extra Mile Data. Carl was able to get me up and running with a database in no time at all and within budget. He has since helped me build this database into a very effective and efficient tool I use daily for my projects. I've very much enjoyed working with Carl and I will certainly continue to use him for any database programming in the future. 'Thanks Carl'

My project “MS Access Salesperson Database” was at a standstill and then I found Extra Mile Data. With the professional help given to me by Carl my project was completed on time and on budget. Carl not only explained the programming as he went along, but he also showed me how I could add coding as well to achieve my desired results (Truly an Extra Mile). The database is an integral part of the day to day operations for our sales force and their supervisor.

Working with databases can be daunting… but not when you work with Carl. Carl’s expert knowledge of MS Access and easy to follow pace and tutoring were extremely helpful. Although I was able to design and create most of my database, it was still missing some key functions and relationships. I left a message and Carl contacted me that same day. Carl took the time to work with me to understand our project and fix our problems. I will most definitely use Extra Mile Data for all my future database needs!!

As is the case with most small businesses, finding the best person for key projects is oft times a disappointing venture. We took a chance on Carl and I’m very glad we did. His willingness to help, his wide knowledge base, his integrity and his cost structure has us coming back with new projects on a regular basis. I recommend him wholeheartedly.

We had tried several vendors to help take our Access based system to the next level. Deciding to bring Extra Mile Data in and help us attain the next level was probably one of the three best decisions our business made last year. I appreciate working with Carl and utilizing his vast experience to improve my business. Triple thumbs up!

I spoke with several different companies and I was not able to get the results I was looking for. Carl is in a league of his own. He is always on time for his appointments. He is meticulous, honest, easy to work with, and has been instrumental in taking my concept to reality. I recommend him to any and all who need his services.

5 Stars!!!! The problem with most techies is that they understand systems and processes, but not business. Carl is the rare exception who understands that technology is a means to an end, and not the end itself. He asked questions each step of the way to understand exactly what we were trying to accomplish, so that he could choose the best methods for achieving our desired outcome – instead of merely selecting what’s the most technically efficient.
