How does an old XLW command / macro work?

[AusSteelMan]

Hi everyone,

I am currently running a children's Xmas tree in my workplace. the old Treasurer has resigned (in Jan 09) and has finally passed the Accounts spreadsheet over to me.

It is an sheet that appears to have been developed many years ago and has the following attributes (used loosely)

XLW file extension
Tabs:
- ACCOUNT.xls
- ACCOUNT.xlw
- Statement
Command button on the xls tab to add a new line item to the end of the list (used for entering new deposits/withdrawals)
The Command button seems to "call" a "procedure" of sorts from the xlw tab.
The procedure is written in cells B3 to B37 as shown below.

I would like to make some alterations to the functionality of the workbook, but with this code am unsure where to start.

I figure that I may be just better off starting a new workbook and developing code equivalents.

So, my questions are:

• What do I have, where did it come from (Excel 4????)?
• Is it easier to start again, or is this type of coding easy to modify once you understand it?

Any thoughts or advice appreciated.

Note: If it is useful, I can Excel Jeanie it tonight from home (still trying to get it installed at work)


ASM

p.s. Don't know why my CODE boxes are so small (there are in preview at least). Sorry if I did something wrong.

Hmmmmmm, I "think" if you record a macro then run that XLW one it may actually record the VBA commands for it all. Once converted it would be easy to edit and make whatever changes you want .

Like I said though I "think" I may well be wrong .

Thanks Blade.

Thanks for the suggestion, unfortunately the resultant macro code is as follows.

Sub test_convert_xlw_code_to_macro()
    Application.Run Range( _
        "'Account 01.09 January 2009_TestingCopy_20091029.XLW'!Transaction")
End Sub

where Transaction is the "macro" name.

Thanks anyway.

Bugger, I was hoping it would record the steps

I have converted the bulk of it to the best of my abilities by putting the XL4 macro statements in a workbook on column A and the corosponding VBA code in column B.

Hopefully some other kind soul will download this and finish it off for you.

There will be a little bit of debugging as I have not used XL4 macros in about 14 years and even then I was just starting to get into coding.

The only stuff I couldn't get was the selecting.

Let me know if I can help further.

Once it's completely converted and running, post back and we can clean it up for you and add what you want.

Wow. Thanks for your time and effort Dan.

I will have a go at putting it all together - and hope that others can help point me in the right direction too.

Thanks again,
Darren
