Central VBA Code

[Skybluekid]

Hi All,

I create a lot of files, approx. 300-400, using Excel and they are stored on Sharepoint(Teams interface). In the files, I have various bit of VBA in each file.

The issue I am having is when I update the VBA, I have to go into all the files and update that bit of VBA. Is there a way to store the VBA in a central file and have each of the file reference the central file for the VBA. This way, when I update the code, all files will be updated.

Thanks in Advance.

Hi @Skybluekid.
Have you ever thought about creating one personal.xlsb and using it on multiple machines, Or your own add-on.?

Hi @MikeVol ,

That is not really an option, I was thinking along the lines of a central file on Teams with the VBA Code and then the satellite files all referencing that file.

The way I have done that is to create my own VBA Addin, then install that on each computer, or in my case give the users the instructions on how to install the addin on their machine. When I update the code I send then the new addin and they just copy it to the addin location. Whether this works with 365 I don't know, I have avoided using 365
