Hello,

I have been working for the last few days on a macro only for me to come into work this morning and be presented with the message 'Excel has found unreadable content in this file, do you want to recover it' on opening.

If I click yes then all of the VBA work I have done has been stripped out. If I close without saving and open it as a zip then the VBAProject.bin file is still present so, my question is, can my work be recovered from this file?

I only need the text from one module and I can copy this into a new module. Is this possible?

What does custom number format of ;;; mean?
Three semi-colons will hide the value in the cell. Although most people use white font instead.
Also, save a new workbook as macro enabled, rename to .zip and then drop your existing VBAProject.bin file into it, and rename back to .xlsm
