There are Excel 4 macros written on Macro Sheets. There is no easy
conversion or any utility to do it. You would need to understand the
functionality of the code and recreate that in VBA.

You can download the help files for Excel 4

Hi folks,

wonder if anybody could give me a hint or a usefull link where I can find
something about the syntax and usage of Excel 97 macro programming
directly
written in cells.
I need to convert a couple of those sheets to VBA but I don't really have
a
clue about this old kind of programming in Excel.
Here is an example to illustrate the way it is now:

KOSY_AUFTRAG
=RESULT(1)
=ARGUMENT("Kosy_Pfad",2)
= ALERT("Kosy_Pfad: "&Kosy_Pfad,2)
=ARGUMENT("Kosy_Anwender",2)
=ARGUMENT("A_Richtung",2)
=ARGUMENT("A_Art",2)
=ARGUMENT("A_Ergebnisdateien",2)
=ARGUMENT("A_Mappe",4)
EXCEL4=VALUE(LEFT(INFO("Version"),1))<5
=IF(OR(ISERR(A_Mappe),ISNA(A_Mappe)))
A_Mappe=EXCEL4
=END.IF()
=CALCULATION(3)
=NOW()
=ECHO(Bild_Aktualisieren)
KEV_KL=0
KEV_Start_Zelle=ACTIVE.CELL()
=CANCEL.KEY(Bild_Aktualisieren)
=FORMULA.GOTO(KEV_endewert)
=CLEAR(3)


Although I'm programming in VB and VBA for a couple of years now, I've
never
seen this way of using makros.
Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Stefan
