Automating reports with microsoft word.
Automating the production of routine reports does not necessarily require programming in a traditional computer language. If you are conversant with Microsoft Word, its macro facility will allow you to develop a customized report generator in a familiar environment with only a modest amount of programming. Furthermore, Word will take care of many important details, including the length of lines, automatic centering of text, and printer support. While the programming requires some work, the resulting report generator will save considerable time and can be mastered by a novice.
