How can I convert my Excel VBA Macros to EXE File

**nikhild64** · 10-26-2018, 01:34 AM

Dear All,

I have prepared lots of Excel based Tools using excel macros. In these Excel Sheets user normally browses excel files or inputs data as guided by the Tool and then runs my macros to generate a desired output. Everything is working fine. However, instead of distributing these Tools as Excel sheets, can I convert my codes to a exe file and distribute it to users who can run it there. I searched a lot on excel to exe related threads but didnt get a satisfying answer hence thought of starting a new thread.

Please help!

Regards,
Nikhil

So are you saying you want to be able to distribute the file to people who don't necessarily have Excel?

Hi kesplash,
Yes kind of. But mainly my intention is to distribute a exe file which people can run and get the task done. some macros fetch data from excel files browsed and convert them to csv/txt files. so better i thought i should distribute a exe instead of an excel file

If there's no benefit in doing something then why do it?

You would probably need to create an executable by using Visual Basic or some other programming language. With an executable you may have problems running due to security and add-ins unavailable on the user's end.
