Do you have to manage recurring and time-consuming tasks and processes in your Microsoft Office applications? Is your company having difficulty customizing internal forms and reports? Don’t know how to efficiently implement custom functions in your Excel sheets?

The solution is: VBA. Visual Basic for Application, or VBA for short, is a scripting language that can be used to control processes in Microsoft Office programs such as Word or Excel. It is the most commonly used scripting language for programming macros. With such macros, tasks in Office programs can be automated or their functionality expanded.

Why and how does soxes use VBA?

Soxes uses the scripting language to automate and extend Microsoft Office programs. With VBA, additional functions can be integrated into Word or Excel, but also into external programs. Thanks to the macros, for example, simple Excel sheets can be transformed into extensive calculation tools or similar. This improves efficiency and reduces workload. For example, routine tasks in Excel can be automated to save time and minimize human errors.

VBA makes data manipulation in Excel easier with the ability to create complex scripts. Businesses can use VBA to import, transform, and analyze data from various sources. This is particularly helpful for large data sets or complex analysis requirements.

VBA also helps to adapt forms and reports in Microsoft Access to your specific requirements. This enables tailored data management and facilitates user interaction with the database. Using VBA enables seamless integration between different Microsoft Office applications. Companies can create workflows that automate data exchange between Excel, Word, Access and other applications to ensure consistent and efficient data processing.

Where did soxes use VBA?

SIK supports communities in purchasing, renting and managing machines. She was looking for a competent partner who would take over the development of a management tool for tenders based on MS Excel. The project involves re-factoring and re-design of the existing tool. In a first step, soxes familiarized itself with all the regulations and specifications for tenders in order to understand the process. The necessary VBA macros were then developed and the Excel program was redesigned to guide the user more efficiently through the tendering process.

HypothekenZentrum AG is an operationally independent company of the VZ Group. She specializes in managing mortgages for private and institutional customers. soxes was commissioned to continue the development of an old MS Access solution.
