What is a .vbp file
Hi all
This must seem naive but what is a .vbp file, when do I need, how do I load, and how do I create one? I can figure the extension refers to Visual Basic Project but beyond that I haven't a clue. Whenever I come across such in download collections (with .frm .frx .bas etc) I am unable to load or do anything with them. TIA for enlightenment Dan |

What is a .vbp file
If you have Visual Basic installed, you can open the VBP file and it
loads the project so that you can work on it. If you don't have VB, then it is not much use to you. The other files, .frm and so on, are the files for the forms, modules, etc which make up the project. Most of the files are text files so you can always open them in Notepad if you want.

What is a .vbp file
Rob and Tim
Thank you both for taking the trouble to reply. That explains why I can't do anything with a .vbp in Excel. Can't believe I never knew there was a stand alone Visual Basic app. Thanks again, Dan -----Original Message----- If you have Visual Basic installed, you can open the VBP file and it loads the project so that you can work on it.

Dan,
A ,vbp file is created when using Visual Basic, the stand-along programming tool. These files contain information about the VB project that you are creating, and have nothing to do with Excel's VBA projects. HTH "Dan" wrote in message ...
