I put this in an edit to a posting but wanted to make sure that everyone sees it.........

I cannot thank everyone enough for helping me get through my very first VB project -- especially since it seems to require more complicated stuff than I remember from class!!!

I took this job under the impression that it would be writing macros in Word to make data "look pretty" -- at least that was what I was told!!! The data output (which is not even a database -- I'm having to reorganize it to make it useful!) is missing half of what is needed to create the reports. I have had to build a user interface to collect the missing information then everything else is supposed to happen automatically!! It's the automation part that is giving me grief!!!

I would not even be close to having something useable if it weren't for this forum!!! Thank you to all that own, operate, and maintain this forum... and thank you to all of you experts out there that read these postings and offer assistance. I admire you and aspire to be like you one day!!!!! You unselfishly give of your time and effort to help us "newbies" and "novices" and encourage us all the while!!

Many thanks,
Mary
