Hi Simon

Thank you for your question

This is hard to answer as we don't support Maconomy.

However if the database is an SQL datbase then the answer is very probably yes. You would need to use SQL code embedded in your VB code, and you would need to understand the structure of the database.

I imagine the manufaturers could give you a clearer picture of this

Hope this helps

Regards

Stephen

Excel tip:

Creating custom lists

In Excel if you type in January in a cell, you can then copy this cell to replicate Febraury, MArch, April etc.

This list has come from Tools- options and Custom lists.

Therefore to save time and create your own list you can click on New (in Tools and custom list tab) and type out the lsit that you want copied quickly.

All you have to do is then type in the 1st word and you will be able to copy the rest of the list quickly.
