[AccessD] Integrating PayPal into an Access application

Joe,

  Look for anything in the forum for Excel or VB as well.  VBA/Classic VB is
so popular, I'd be shocked if you couldn't find some code posted that would
pretty much drop right in.

Jim.

Gustav and Jim,

Thanks for the information.  It gives me a place to start.

Joe

 Might be easier then you think.  Most payment gateways make it fairly easy
to integrate your app.

 I did a VBA interface to Authorize.Net and it was very straight forward.
Was nothing more then making a HTTP request.

 Haven't done PayPal ever, but Joe may want to look in the Forums there
rather then the sample code pages.

Jim.

Hi Joe

This will not be easy. No one seems to care using VB(A) with the PayPal
APIs:

https://www.x.com/developers/paypal/documentation-tools
https://www.x.com/developers/PayPal/documentation-tools/code-sample/216623

So you will be pretty much on your own.
The solution might be to have a dll programmed that A2010 can utilize.

I have a customer that wants to accept credit card payment and process them
through PayPal.  The application uses Access 2010.

Has anyone done this?  Any tips or things to avoid?  Sample code to
interface with PayPal?
