Microsoft Office Automation Expert

Every day of the year, people spend time in Microsoft Word and Microsoft Excel doing menial, repetitive work that can be automated. Maybe you know how to record a macro. But how do you automate a process that is conditional, that asks the right questions, that makes Excel talk to Word (or PowerPoint), that loops through each paragraph or cell, or that is precisely customized to streamline your workflow from raw data to emailed PDF? And how do you save it so it’s easy to trigger?

I can refer you to a VBA programmer who develops customized automation templates and dialog boxes in Word and Excel: correspondence that uses your own letterhead, compensation calculators, timesheets, branded invoices with envelopes, proposals that let you pick picture sets, pleading captions, interactive forms that bring up dialog boxes, and so much more. You can stop wasting time and energy on this tedious stuff. Automate it.

Do you use Word for professional writing, business correspondence, legal documents, or other complex work? Does Word seem to have a mind of its own with formatting and spacing, multi-section page numbering, wrapping text around images, footnotes, outlines, being mysterious, or just plain saying no to you at random times? When you’re ready to tame Microsoft Word — by working with it instead of against it — I can refer you to a Microsoft Certified Master Instructor who has helped over 80 law firms plus many other companies, through thousands of classes, understand and control this ubiquitous application.

He can teach you the why and how of best practices for smooth travels through paragraphs, sections, bookmarks, cross-references, tables of contents, fields, content controls, templates, track changes, fillable forms, macros, keyboard shortcuts, non-printing characters, and much more.
