Hall" To: Access User Group Subject:Access User Group Meeting - 2/17/99 Hi Everyone, Wouldn't it be nice to click on a button in your Microsoft Access contact manager database and immediately have Microsoft Word display a letter already addressed? You then customize the first paragraph, print it along with an envelope, save it with a hyperlink in your contact manager, and get on with life. This is the kind of thing that office automation allows - efficiency and effectiveness in the workplace. This month we have two Microsoft Access developers presenting some practical solutions using office automation. Here is our agenda for next week, Wednesday evening, February 17, at 9 Hillside Drive, Waltham.
