NB: This post is based on excerpts from an update I sent to to my Excel Heaven Visual Basic Automation club members today.
Last week, I mentioned that I would be sending you a:
“…gift you can use in your work i.e. an Excel VB app called the “Switch Board” that you can copy to your PC and with a few entries in the settings table, use to open other files on your PC without needing to search all over for them. The visual basic code will be open so you can view and study it, towards learning how to build one.”
The attached is an annotated diagram, with explanatory notes/comments that I created (based on an original version I found on Pierre LeClerc’s website at the time) in 2008
I used it as a marketing tool to illustrate”how a LOW COST, easy to use/maintain and highly user-friendly Data Management/Report Generation System can be setup for a corporate organization using MS Excel-VB automation.
Note the reference in the diagram to “The Switchboard” as a “Single Screen Workbook With Labeled, Hyper linked Command Buttons”.
It (i.e. “The Switchboard”) enables ANY user click on labeled command buttons to quickly open ANY workbook they wish to use, without having to manually search through folders on the PC or company intranet.
This kind of Data Management/Report Generation System can be easily setup in ANY organization, by a user who has acquired the needed competence.
As members of my Excel-VB club (see our closed/private/paid-members only page here), you will be getting:
1. a zipped folder containing a switchboard linked to other documents shown in this diagram, so you can test drive it and get a feel for how easy it can make your life as a results focused business user.
2. Then I will follow it up with a video showing how to setup the whole system.
3. Most importantly, you will be able to request my support in applying what you learn to boost productivity in YOUR own workplace.
In your service,
Tayo
