As well as Microsoft® Excel, we are skilled at using and programming Microsoft® Word. While powerful in itself, if the client requires, this can be modified and programmed with additional functionality.

The advantages of this to a business are potentially huge, and include:

• Automated Reports: Reports can take hours, or even days, to create; pulling in data from various disparate sources, then combining them all, formatting it all to look presentable, and arranging the information so that it is readable. We can automate reports so that they create themselves in seconds. The advantage of using Microsoft® Word is that the finished report could then be used as a Microsoft® Word document, and be typed on or incorporated in a larger Microsoft® Word document.

• Templates: These are files that can be pre-designed to client specifications (perhaps featuring calculations and/or the company logo) before being saved to a PC. These can then be opened as and when a structured environment (such as an invoice form or a spreadsheet for calculating certain costs, etc.) is required. For ease of use and consistency, templates are a Godsend. Available in Microsoft® Excel or Microsoft® Word.
