RobertaW said:Right now my inventory is set up in an excel file. All of my orders are
received by email (we use Outlook to receive emails). If I were to move
my
inventory into an Access database, would it be able to reduce the number
of
items I have in stock from an email we receive. Also, is there an easy to
way to transfer the excel file into the access file?
Conceptually, you could have your customers use a specific form in Outlook
and use Office Automation to read the form's contents into Access. Having
them use Excel as an order form still requires you to open and save it
before Access can link to and read it.
