  1. Hi, all: I am brand new to this forum but I have purchased Macro express for a while and know it is a powerful tool if one knows how to apply it correctly. I am so thankful for whoever invented the software because it saves me a lot of time and manual work!!! Right now I am having a little difficulty in this task and I hope someone can help me with that (I'll do my best to explain). I am doing this data-entry thing where I need to go to certain website, open documents one by one, then based on the search criteria I will then enter data from the chosen doc into a excel spreadsheet. My problems are: 1) these docus are all locked into PDF file, so I have to literally use my eyes to find the data that fits my search criteria (for example, one of the criteria is zipcode, so that means I have to scroll through the doc with my own eyes to see if the desired zipcode is there, and if so, I would insert most info from that docs) I tried using the "Find" buttom but could not perform the function on PDF file docs. 2) going between two programs. Like I said,I would go to the website, find the docs, look through it, and as soon as I find it, then I would go to a excel spreadsheet (which is already opened), and enter the data. This is pretty much the standard procedure and I am wondering how I could program a macro to do that. Thank you in advance for any advise!!!! Linda InfoResearcher
