AccountMate 6.5 – Office Automation

Not only does AccountMate 6.5’s new interface provide a bright new “look”; it also includes additional Microsoft Office integration capability that increases the tools available to the users. The Power Toolbar conveniently offers instant access to Microsoft Excel, Word and Internet Explorer; and the Shortcut Pane provides the ability to customize program shortcuts to suit each users needs. Many AccountMate 6.5 users are already using the Shortcut pane as their “desktop”. Be sure to read this week’s TechNote to get the most out of the new interface.

The options displayed in the Maintenance toolbar vary depending upon which AccountMate functions or forms are opened. Under certain screen resolution settings some Maintenance toolbar options are hidden. This week’s TechNote explains how to access Maintenance toolbar options that may be hidden and discusses the purpose of each.
