Hi,

I’m looking into software options to compile excel into machine code, likely C++.

Does anyone have a software suggestion and what was your experience with it?

Most software options returned in a google search only work for windows. I’m hoping to find one that that can compile for OSX as well.

Thanks

Andrew

Best way to learn Power Query?
Read M is for (Data) Monkey book by Ken Puls and Miguel Escobar. It is the complete guide to Power Query.
I've heard of a few (XLCompiler), but I've not used any (except for the VBSEdit compiler). But as it transpires, this is not the first time someone has asked that question on this forum! See here and here.

Hey @Dan_W,

Thanks for the links.

Compiling for Windows has a few options. Translator++ looking like the best option. I however haven’t found anything for compiling for OSX.

Thanks

I can't help you with OSX - my understanding is that VBA on OSX doesn't have as full functionality as it does on Windows - but I genuinely don't know. Alternatively, you could convert it to .NET (VB or C#) and reproduce your VBA code as a DLL file? Again, no idea if this would work on OSX though.
