• Why do people still use VBA?

  I do RPA from VBA personally using IAccessiblity. See stdAcc (https://github.com/sancarn/stdVBA/blob/master/src/stdAcc.cls) and an example (https://github.com/sancarn/stdVBA-examples/tree/main/Example...)

• Writing a Compiler is Surprisingly Easy (part 1)

  You could have just treated everything as variant correct? That's what we do here: https://github.com/sancarn/stdVBA/blob/master/src/stdLambda....

• Is the era of the self-taught dev over?
  1 project | /r/learnprogramming | 11 Jul 2023

  The responses I got was a mix. Some businesses didn't take me seriously because the main language I used was VBA. Some businesses claimed I was too eager and I "didn't have a life". No one seemed to care about the achievements I had made in the languages, like building a DSL in VBA, or this electron app. I did eventually get a job in another engineering firm though, where I spend 90% of my time to this day programming.

• Best Practice in Aggregating Data

  Really depends what you actually want to do and how neat (or fast) you want your code to be too... I typically use stdEnumerator and stdLambda from stdVBA.

• How long have you been using VBA? What do you use it for at your job? Or for personal reasons
  3 projects | /r/vba | 16 Jun 2023

  Sometimes, though more of a library / tool developer here. See stdVBA or stdVBA-examples

• Why does VBA give general statement for errors and not exact?
  1 project | /r/vba | 16 Jun 2023

  That said it is effort. After building stdLambda which brings lambda syntax to VBA, I can tell you that error handling in this class is still trash. It's just a lot of effort to write good error messages, and handle all errors correctly. Still definitely an item on the TODO list, but will it ever be a priority? idk

• Bulk Structured Spreadsheet Extractor
  2 projects | /r/vba | 29 May 2023

  Otherwise this library poses as an example of how to use stdVBA libraries. Libraries used in this project: stdEnumerator, stdArray, stdCallback, stdCOM, stdICallable, stdLambda, stdRegex.

• A Fast and Simple Settings Management Module. Automatically sets everything up and works for PC or MAC
  3 projects | /r/vba | 15 Apr 2023

  If you want a solution though see stdSettings. There are both system and user settings. Users are bound by their domain, so should work across organisations :)

• [EXCEL] How do I get the accName of a control via AccessibleObjectFromWindow
  1 project | /r/vba | 3 Mar 2023

  Use stdVBA's stdAcc:

• /r/VBA PSA: ChatGPT is incredibly good at writing basic VBA code if you give it clear instructions of what you want it to do and how
  1 project | /r/vba | 2 Mar 2023

  Explaining code in such a way that it codes the correct thing is pretty awful though... Let's try to do that for stdTimer.
