Microsoft Visual Basic for Applications (VBA)
has been designed to provide high-level development capabilities inside
off-the-shelf applications. Users of MS-Word and MS-Excel, for example,
can make use of VBA to customize and enhance their word-processing or spreadsheet
applications. |
| |
| |
| |
VBA is also fully integrated within Pythagoras.
This results in a high-level development environment for enhancing and customizing
Pythagoras. It includes an object model that provides complete read and
write access to Pythagoras objects such as points, lines, circular curves,
spirals, digital terrain models, and more), and it contains a complete set
of sophisticated geometric calculation utilities. This has opened up a new
world of capabilities for Pythagoras users. A few examples: |

| |
|
Pythagoras VBA makes it easy to write your own
report generators : legal descriptions, stakeout reports, volume calculation
reports, etc. |
| |
|
You can write customized reports directly to
MS-Word documents. |
| |
|
Develop macros for specialized tasks |
| |
|
Build your own coordinate geometry commands
to automate geometric problem solving. |
| |
|
Create special macros for importing and exporting
data : survey data, geometric data, digital terrain model data, etc. |
