Hi,
I am very new to Access, like I started reading a book on it Tuesday. I am
familiar with excel and use it a lot. A friend has a company and he wants
to automate invoicing. currently the secretary writes them by hand each
morning. There is about 30 invoices a day and a customer base of about 500.
I experimented with the templets that are in access 2003 but none of them
are for printing a simple invoice. He bought 100,000 pre-printed NCR
invoice paper to run through a dot matrix printer which I finally have
working. The printer that it, not the data base. There are 2 invoices per
8 1/2 by 11 sheet so I will be printing to 8 1/2 by 5 1/2. I'm sure there
is somewhere in there where you can define the paper perameters.
Is there a templete available for simple invoiceing around somewhere that I
can get? I spent some time on Microsoft's web site last night and reviewed
all the access templates there, but non were for just creating an invoice
from a table. This is a very basic thing I'm trying to do. Customer name,
product, date, and invoice number. I figured out how to make a table, and
make a form for the secretary to use to type in the customers.
Thanks,
Mike
