Default Convert Excel. xls to .exe

Is there a way to convert an Excel file into an .exe
(executable file)??


No, there is no way to do this. The user must have Excel
installed on his machine.

Happy Friday!

Is there a way to convert an Excel file into an .exe
(executable file)??

This is what I want to do:
- design and develop a userform in Excel that the user can run
from
their PC without opening Excel.

-the userform simply has three command buttons that will open a
file
when clicked.

-I don't have Visual Basic, so my only way to run this userform
is by
opening Excel.
Is there a shortcut to bypass opening Excel?

Thanks for looking and you're help is appreciated.

happy day!
