Default generate form from excel data

I would go the route of creating an Access database. The input form would
have the cells for information and a report could be created in Invoice
design.

More importantly, with the database constructed relationally, all activity
for each customer would be easily seen together.

If you want to go this route and are not familiar with building a database,
email me the names of the fields to be populated and I will put together
something to see if you can make use of it.

Hi guys, my first post here. I'm somewhat familiar with programming.

My problem is (maybe I'm just silly) that I want to generate a form
with the data from an excel row. I'm just making the simplest of
order-handling systems. We get orders in by mail/phone/fax etc, fill in
the appropriate lines in an excel sheet, and the I'd like to be able to
print out a very simple invoice from this, preferably by using a button
in the last column, or better by checking the lines I want for the
invoice and then generating it. The invoice is quite basic, currently a
word document, and it's no problem if we need to restructure this.

Any ideas about how to do this?

Best regards
