Stellenbosch Publishers

We specialise in developing stand-alone programs (developed in VB6, VB2003 and/or VB2008) that utilise the possibiliy of directly reading from and directly writing to Access databases, Excel spreadsheets and Word documents.

The program we deliver is an .exe file that interacts with the standard Microsft Office files (.mdb, .xls and .doc), i.e the input and output files of the program can be accessed by the respective Microsoft Office programs.

Example 1:
A program that reads an Access database file and an Excel file (both with financial information), performs calculations and writes a Word document containing the annual financial report.

Example 2:
A program with a form (i.e. input on the screen), using the information and the choices supplied to compile a quote for an insurance policy in a Word document, emailing the document and updating a database containing all the past quotes.

Example 3:
A program that reads a Word document and produces a list of all the words used in the document with their frequency of occurence.
