DocuMagic
Inc. will help you to determine the best
applications to use for each portion of a project,
and then
bring them together to provide the optimal end
result.
Each Microsoft Office application has it's own
dedicated
function that it performs better than any of
the other
applications. To illustrate just a few of these
functions:
• Word
is a powerful word processor and has
high-end capabilities for formatting and
outputting professional documents;
•Excel is the best at performing calculations
and analysis and developing charts and graphs;
•Access easily maintains and manipulates large
amounts of data;
•Outlook provides contact management
capabilities;
• PowerPoint produces robust presentations.
Although each application has some capabilities that the
others specialize in, for quality performance and results, the
specialized application should be used for the task. For
example, although you can maintain a data source in a
Word table, to have more flexibility and scalability, the data
should be maintained in Access, Excel, or Outlook, depending
on the type of data and what needs to be done with it.
By harnessing the power
of each application, and then using
Visual Basic for Applications to draw the data from each source
and integrate them into a single output location, you get the
optimal environment for data storage, manipulation, format,
output, and flexibility.
