Abstract
Visual Basic provides a variety of tools and features that facilitate the design and construction of an electronic archiving system in an effective and integrated manner, which increases the efficiency and effectiveness of the archiving and data management process. In Visual Basic, electronic archiving applications can be seamlessly integrated with existing systems in the organization, which reduces confusion and disturbances in daily operations. The work focuses on designing and implementing an electronic archiving program based on Visual Basic. We have built a highly efficient program based on Visual Basic to organize electronic archiving with the aim of saving effort and time for workers in the archiving units for official documents and correspondence. Through the research, we demonstrate the ability of Visual Basic to transform paper mail work into electronic archiving characterized by transparency, speed, and no delay in delivering documents and preserving them from damage due to their storage in the database and the possibility of retrieving them at any time. It also reduces the burden on people responsible for archiving, mail and documents. Visual Basic's API can be easy to use and suitable for non-tech-savvy users. The cost of building and designing electronic archiving applications using Visual Basic can be lower compared to custom development solutions or using off-the-shelf commercial systems, reducing capital expenditures.
