Smartbiz is a site run by Tom Bizannes in Sydney Australia
Tom Bizannes works for a Microsoft Gold
Partner in the Sydney CBD where he helpds companies with Microsoft Office
Applications and Microsoft Database reporting,
This is an information and networking site only, covering some of the technology that we
use everyday.
Some of the recent challenges have been migrations from older versions of office
to Office 2010 and for some firms to Office 2007.
The applications requiring the most changes have been Microsoft Excel and
Microsoft Access, This seems to be due to the whole new way these applications
work which changes functionality and breaks others, plus the way these were
previously designed may not have been that robust.
Also many of the "VBA" or"Macro Enabled" applications many firms have, weren't
designed to be easily moved from a Dev to UAT to Production environment.
Working for a Microsoft Gold Partner means we get to play the latest
technologies before they hit the market and can do most things 2 to 5
times faster than the average IT guy....
