Programmatically add macro to Excel Workbook using VBA

Insert Code Module to Workbook using Excel VBA

There are numerous instances where code/macro needs to be added to the workbook on the fly. The following code snippet adds the code from the module to the specified workbook

Function Insert_Button(ByRef oWB As Workbook)

Dim oVBP As VBProject ' VB Project Object

Dim oVBC As VBComponent ' VB Component Object

On Error GoTo Err_VBP

Set oVBP = oWB.VBProject

Set oVBC = oVBP.VBComponents.Add(vbext_ct_StdModule)

oVBC.CodeModule.AddFromFile "c:\VBADUD\Templates\MSample.bas"

oWB.Application.Run "'" & oWB.name & "'!SayHello"

oWB.Save

' -------------------

' Destroy Objects

' -------------------

Finally:

If Not oVBP Is Nothing Then Set oVBP = Nothing

' -------------------

' Error Clearer

' -------------------

Err_VBP:

If Err < > 0 Then

Err.Clear

GoTo Finally

End If

End Function

After adding the macro to the Excel workbook programmatically, the code fires the Macro – “SayHello” from the added bas module

The code uses VBProject. Ensure that the Microsoft Visual Basic for Applications Extensibility reference is loaded
