Creating COM add-in
"Vlad" wrote
I read here that Excel add-ins don't provide much protection/security (passwords can be easily broken), that the way to go is with an Excel COM add-in instead, and that VB6 is the best tool for designing an Excel COM add-in. Depends on language preference. AFAIK there are decompilers for VB6 as well. C++ will be hardest to break. However, I can't find a place to buy VB6 anymore. Check eBay for a used copy. Can I use Visual Basic.NET Standard instead? You can, but it provides less protection than VB and add-ins can't be run without the .NET framework. On the other hand, there are a lot of good reasons that nobody is buying VB6 anymore ;-) Jens. -- http://ManagedXLL.net/ Replace MSDN with my first name when replying to my email address! |
