Hi
I´m in the middle of my first serious attempt to create a usefull application. My friend is a used car dealer and he really could use an easier way to create reciepts and invoices. Today he´s just reusing the same word document over and over, which is very tedious and time consuming.
I´ve build a vb.net "form" which puts customer info, and so on, in an access database. Each row of the database is one transaction, containing customer info and info about the car, price and so on.
My question is:
Whats the best way to create a printable reciept using the info from the access database?
Should i create an excel template containing all the legal text and then export posts from the database to specific cells or is there a "cleaner" way to do this? Is there some way i could use the "report" function of access perhaps?
Maybe this should be posted in some access forum..
I´ve been searching for answers for days now, any ideas?
Best Regards
Miffo
