Visual Basic Code Examples For Outlook 2020

Code

VBA programming, VBscript and Access VBA scripts provide dynamic aspects to your forms. We make extensive use of Access VBA programming in all of our Access relational database applications – we never use macros. Many of our VBA examples can be used in other Microsoft Office projects such as Microsoft Excel and Microsoft Word. After reviewing these examples visit our case studies where you’ll see how we make use of these tools to create Contact Management, Inventory & CRM databases for our clients.

Use of macros to perform these operations should be avoided because of the limited ability to document programming code and to view the entire process within macros. Also, when performance is an issue, VBA code will be much faster than macros.
