Hi Everyone,

I have a situation where I currently have 25 stores all with exactly the same very complex document.

now the problems I face are that if I need to update a macro for example, I have to go into every copy and change it.

So I was wondering if it would slow the document down if I pulled the VBA out of the document into an unsed document that just stored its VBA, that why i could just update once and copy and paste the document into the 25 folders saving me a lot of time.

can this be done? is it a good idea?

thanks

Tony
 

Excel Facts

What does custom number format of ;;; mean?
Three semi-colons will hide the value in the cell. Although most people use white font instead.
The actual coding would take microseconds so no but what you put in the coding could slow it down.
