We need a Windows (7, 8.1, 10) application that will take an existing MS Word document (2010 & later) as a template and, similar to a mail merge, fill it with data from an Excel file. Currently we use a Word template and populate each item manually and frequently reuse the same information, so we want to make the report creation more efficient and automated.
The data will not be simple as in a mail merge, but will consist of:
1) sentences
2) paragraphs
3) lists
4) pictures & graphics
5) meta data to delete or add sections to the template
6) Names, date, contact information
7) customized footer information
The final product of this app will produce a fully formatted document consisting of the MS Word document with the information added in from the Excel file. This will be a report that is printed, so there is no video or audio. The final report, with approval from the user, will automatically email a copy to a specified user or users.
The Word document template already exists, but the Excel file does not. Part of the project is determining an efficient layout of data in the file. The Excel file will have a variable number of sections, each with a variable amount of material. The format of the data needs to be easy for an Excel novice to use comfortably.
The design of the software needs to be extensible to allow for easy modification in the future. We are open to different methodologies, but high level archetectural design needs to be approved by us before proceeding to ensure we understand and like the technologies and flow of information.
Allowable languages are C++, Java, VB (if absolutely necessary). Installation and Execution cannot depend on non-standard software being installed. You may require Java Virtual Machine and standard C++ dll's.
Deliverables are complete source code, list of source code dependencies, libraries, non-standard dll's, and installation file or executable as well as a walkthrough of the final application. Time frame would be under two months.
Hello there,
I reviewed the requirements overview you shared and would like to inform you that there are more than one ways to generate word documents from a template and data in Excel. I am an expert in MS Office automation and as you would see, have done more than 490 projects here on freelancer itself with Excellent ratings.
If you could drop a message to me, I would be able to demo two different set-ups that I did which were similar to your requirement. In one, the complete Word file is 'written' on run time while in other a Template is 'populated' with data from a spreadsheet model.
In your case perhaps a hybrid approach would work. If you could share the word document template and the various sections etc. that it may have, I would be able to suggest a very intuitive design for your purpose.
I can assure you of excellent quality work.
Please drop a note to me if you would like to discuss the requirements further and we could set up a time to chat. Once I have the details, I would also be able to suggest the appropriate project and milestone plan.
Look forward to hear from you and thank you for considering my bid
Best Regards,

Hello,
I have 15 years of programming experience and I am sure that I can help in developing this application that will populate Word doc from Excel.
I can also help in creating an Excel template that can be easily used by anyone.
Kindly give the Word document template to plan for Excel template development.
Thanks
Very long experience with MS Office automation (Excel; Outlook, Word, ...).
Please take a look at our portfolio, you may see some examples.
May you provide the existing Word template for a better estimate of the workload.
Although we may use C++, java, VB.Net or C#, for the ease of future maintenance, we think VB or C# will be more appropriate.

Hello,
I was excited to see your opening for the Microsoft Word Development task, and I hope I will be considered for the position.
In the past, I have customized Microsoft Word and Microsoft Excel to integrate with external ERP and CRM systems. These customizations were written in C# and VB.NET and harnessed the VSTO tools. Users would have access to a custom ribbon inside of Microsoft Office with various buttons, drop down lists, and text boxes. The buttons would launch custom .NET Windows forms to manage connection information, allow searching of data in external systems, and merge data using Word Building Blocks or Excel Ranges. Based on your requirements, I would be capable of adapting these skills to your project.
With this experience, I am confident that I can offer you the expertise you are seeking. Thank you for your time - I look forward to learning more about this opportunity.

Thank You,
