Access VBA to edit PDF Form data

Post by icanutoo »

Dim PXCAddin As PXCOfficeAddin.PXCOfficeAddin

Trying to use the PXCOfficeAddin as a Library within Access to edit PDF for data, however:

1. Not sure the correct dll library is added from PDF-XCHANGE, if PXCOfficeAddin.x64.dll can be used
2. Keep getting a user-defined error on the DIM statement above

could use acroexch.app, based on Bing GPT-4 but like PDF X-change better.

If only I could get the link to Access to edit PDF forms directly... it will keep me from having to trade csv files...

Appreciate any help on this issue.

Hello icanutoo,

Our products are not designed to be accessible in that way via VBA.
If you need to perform some automated operations - please consider using our PDF Tools, and it's command line options:

So you can set up custom tools:
How do I Create Custom Tools in PDF-Tools
And then call those from the command line using your VBA.

Kind regards,
Stefan
