Hi Jon,
I need to find the code bearing needles in a haystack of close to a million (yes, 1,000,000) Excel files, so opening each file is not really an option.

Would you have any idea how to check a large number of files for code included?

Clooge -

I don’t do any C# (except on the guitar, mostly by accident), so I can’t guide you there. I also don’t know how the functionality in a worksheet can be encoded in VBA or C#, other than by hand.

I wish I remembered that I had written this article. I needed just this functionality the other day, and ended up doing it by hand.

Saw your post and followed you here, is there a C# library or this packaged so that I can turn the variables and sections in a worksheet into a class.

Hi Mathias -

I was just thinking I should email you with the link to this article, but I see you’ve found it.

A VBA difference tracker will make a nice addition to your Akin utility, more useful to me I think than a worksheet difference tracker. I think as long as you set your references properly, you should have no (or minimal) problems accessing the code.

I haven’t had time to really dig into it, but at a glance, the variables are already much more pleasing to the eye! It’s funny how the urge to fix small things can be a powerful motivator. In any case, I am very happy that this code exists now: I was thinking of adding some difference tracking between the VBA code of 2 workbooks in Akin, but had never seen any code dealing with that part of the Excel object model – this example will go a long way for me. Now, my turn to get started and do something in .NET… Curious to see if I will have problems accessing the VBA object model from there!
