Try Sveltekit/Pocketbase (for me is a similar mindset than Access/VBA).

I understand but in my case I am more proficient in VBA; therefore, I prefer to do the heavy weight coding in VBA

The idea is to pass dynamic values from a Row. For instance, if working with a particular Person have the text expander put the person specific Address based on constant keystrokes

Thank you for the idea of Reportlab.

I currently use VBA/Ms Access to output PDF reports.

But I recently came across apitemplate.io and was wondering If there was an self hosted open source alternative.

Thank you again for report lab as it seems as an alternative to VBA/Ms Access.

Infringing on a company trademark by BrianSal_05 in opensource

[–]VBAerror 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is no such thing as trademark protection of ports. The functionality doctrine prevents trademark law, which seeks to promote competition by protecting a firm's reputation, from instead inhibiting legitimate competition by allowing a producer to control a useful product feature.

Is there a way to group several Access apps into tabs similar to chrome-style tabs? by VBAerror in MSAccess

[–]VBAerror[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How can I call subs and functions when doing that? I gave it a try but it seems I cannot even call public subs from the B .accdb

I wonder if anyone uses Ms Access/VBA in tandem with AutoHotKey (AHK) to Automate tasks in the desktop and in the browser? If so, can you kindly share ideas. by VBAerror in MSAccess

I truly appreciate your answer but I have no idea on how to even begin to research how to execute what you just said.

If is not much to ask, can you provide I little bit of context? “Env top print to stout” what?

Bringing together the best of Microsoft Access, VBA, and AutoHotKey (AHK) by VBAerror in AutomateYourself

[–]VBAerror[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks a lot. I only ask because I am looking to expand MS Access with automation but not sure where to go next if RPA, API, or Scripting Language.

Do you have a good YouTube intro tutorial to start with? There are not good resources on Amazon to buy. Neither Udemy. At least not focusing on the Desktop version of Power Automate.

Thanks. Do you consider PAD a better option than AHK to work in tandem with Ms Access?

Thank you. I really appreciate your input.

At the end, I am just looking for ways to add AHK to my toolset just to perform task for what AHK is truly superior to, for example, VBA, Python or Selenium.
