Office Solution Development

[SDeam]

I am currently trying to develop a comprehensive system using microsoft
office. Our company has worked through MS Office for years and we have many
different files and methods of doing things. I am attempting to integrate
these into one process and eliminate the redundancy. I am fairly proficient
in almost all of the Office programs (visio and onenote are still a little
shaky).

What I am looking for is some sort of in depth guide to Office
interoperability -- I want to use our Access database as the master program
and be able to use the other programs as necessary, but to share the
information between the office programs. Where should I look for solutions
and ideas?

Hi S.,

You may want to also post in the Office developer's
newsgroup (link below) including some specifics on
your versions of Windows and Office, number of users,
and what you mean by 'comprehensive sytem'.

You may also want to have a look at some of the articles
on http://msdn.microsoft.com/office and
sites such as http://www.devx.com/OfficeProDev/Door/27406
as a starting point.
