Microsoft VBA

You are here:

VBA is a version of Visual Basic embedded in Microsoft's Office suite of programs. I have worked mainly with VBA in Excel.

Triton Technology decided that rather than develop a whole suite of software for presenting data in the form of tables and graphs it would be easier to use the functionailty provided in Excel.

In my work for Lacerta Technology I am still responsible for maintaining some of the older software products that use Excel VBA.

I have also recently done some work for a small company helping to fix some problems and add some new features to some programs they have which import data from their MIS databases and produce reports for them in Microsoft Excel.

If you are wanting any programming work doing, either debugging and fixing old systems or developing new software, please do get in touch.

Microsoft Visual Basic

I first worked with Visual Basic on a project for Transco with Keane. This was probably VB5. I later worked extensively with VB6 at Triton Technology and Lacerta Technology.

Microsoft Excel

I have used Microsoft Excel for many years, both as a general purpose spreadsheet, and for the analysis and prentation of scientific data. I also have experience developing applications using VBA in Excel.

Triton Technology Ltd.

I worked for Triton Technology Ltd. as software and IT manager for many years and continued to work for Lacerta Technology Ltd. which was formed from what remained after the company was sold to Mettler Toledo.

Lacerta Technology Ltd. design and manufacturer scientific instruments, in particular devices to aid in the measurement and characterisation of polymers using thermal analysis and related techniques.

Visual Basic .Net

When Triton Technology developed the new identiPol QA instrument we took the opportunity to move to the latest software development environment for Microsoft Windows which was .NET. As we already had a lot of software written in VB6 I decided to implement the new software in Vb.Net.
