I write reports for clients provided by intermediary brokers. Client and broker details stored on Access db and simple repeated client features (eg name, calculated age, gender, handedness, address etc) are currently mailmerged into Word. As report base has grown I find there are increasing stock phrases that can be usefully recycled to save time. I want a VB "dashboard" to drive the process, search report sections for reusable stock phrases, edit reusable stock phrases, automatically ensure correct client or broker details (eg he, him, his etc for male and she, her, hers, herself etc for female). Open word doc from Access. Contact management for clients and instructing parties. Able to create client appointment letters, copying to instructors. Auto create directory in which to save individual reports. vba to process complex branching logic. Arrange word report layout in Word from Access using vba. vba to print report. Ten related tables each with about 150 fields. Each table defines phrases in one section. Happy to get solution using only two related tables. Willing to consider using VB to manage Access db and Word instead of vba. Need working prototype fast. May be room for further development eg email reminders, accounts and payment tracking etc. Advice welcome before opening to bid. I have some VB programming experience and willing to work together with successful bidder.
