XL2007 vs XL2003
Hi,
I've yet to update to XL2007. Does anyone know of anything in particular that's different with regard to programming in VBA? |

FileSearch is gone.
There is a CountLarge property to allow for the 1M rows. -- --- HTH Bob (there's no email, no snail mail, but somewhere should be gmail in my addy) "Art" wrote in message ...

teepee,
Thanks -- in addition to new properties (like the countlarge that you mention) have you run into any new problems? "teepee" wrote: "Art" wrote I've yet to update to XL2007.

As I said FileSearch is gone, so that may be a big problem.
Also, the ribbon is obviously different to commandars, and have to be created differently, unless you are happy that they end up on the Addins tab. -- --- HTH Bob (there's no email, no snail mail, but somewhere should be gmail in my addy) "Art" wrote in message ... teepee, Thanks -- in addition to new properties (like the countlarge that you mention) have you run into any new problems?

Can't protect sheets and then allow users to edit those objects via VBA. Can't alter certain characteristics of certain objects - eg with a graph you can change the colour but not the border. |

teepee,
Thanks very much. It will be a few months before I upgrade -- I guess I'll look forward to it.

Art, I've noticed that the macro recorder in Excel 2007 records very little
with regard to shapes and charts. So one often doesn't get even a good starting point. I also have noticed that macros run noticably slower in Excel 2007.

XL2007 vs XL2003
All:
I need to upgrade from XL2000 (VBA 6.3). Question I have is whether it's worth going straight to XL2007 even thought most of my clients are using XL2003. My primary concern is the apparent superior security that 2007 provides - I've been wary of the limited, 40-bit encryption that earlier versions offer. TIA, Jim "Art" wrote: Bob, Well, that's not good news. Thanks for the link -- I haven't spent much time looking at it yet, but it seems interesting. On a related topic... I've been trying somewhat succesfully to use VSTO -- Visual Studio is very nice and the functionality of a full version of VB.net is really nice. BUT... it is really a pain to use sometimes and definitely harder to deploy than a file with VBA in it. The Object Model is also not nearly as easy as running directly in VBA in Excel. So I was sort of hoping (without any real expectation of this happening) that perhaps the VBA implementation might move a little in that direction in order to get the best of both worlds. Anyway, sorry about the semi-rant, but thanks again for the info. "Bob Flanagan" wrote: Art, I've noticed that the macro recorder in Excel 2007 records very little with regard to shapes and charts.
