We are sending out almost 100 RFIs to 100 hospitals across the country. The package consists of:
1) cover letter. (more or less a form letter) which gives directions on how to fill out the enclosed documents, etc. Everything revolves around the organ transplant type the hospital specializes in. There are 14 in total. I won?t list them all ? but here are a few examples:
-- Adult Heart
-- Adult Liver
-- Adult Liver-Kidney
-- Pediatric Autologous
-- Pediatric Allogeneic
This does not mean the hospital specializes in all 14 different types ? often it?s a combination of 4 or 5 different types. While some hospitals only specialize in one.
There is also a general excel file which the hospitals are required to input information. This Excel file has a sheet for just almost every one of those transplant types mentioned except for a couple of exceptions. The first sheet in the workbook is the instructions sheet, which every hospital will need to get.
2) I have to send this excel file to the hospital ?customized?. In essence, I delete all the other sheets that don?t pertain to that hospital. So let?s take a fictitious example of Kramer Hospital. Kramer Hospital specializes in only Adult Heart and Liver. Obviously when I send the file, I want to send only the first instruction sheet and the sheets for heart and liver.
So based on what I call ?KEY WORDS? (or the organ transplant type) listed within a bookmark RANGE called "transplant types" end of paragraph 1 of cover letter, I want Word to trigger Excel, then open up the Excel file, then delete all the sheets in that workbook that do not pertain to that hospitals specialty; then prompt me to do a Save As where I can choose the folder (path) of my own choosing.
Let's say the excel file is here:
C:\RFI\Excel Sheets\Organ transplants.xls
There are sheets (tabs) for ?Adult Heart? "Adult Liver??. Etc.
