What? Am I the only one who hates VBA with a burning hatred of a thousand suns?
- andy81 5y agoThat's a common opinion. The object model and IDE are a big part of it though, maybe even more so than syntax horrors like while..wend vs do while..loop.
- corty 5y agoThe libraries in VisualBasic (before .net) do suck. But syntactically, Python and Basic are very close. I hate both very much, because all the nice features that make programming fun are lacking. Both feel very much like using a childs' toy instead of proper tools.
- auxym 5y agoVBA is very 90s. As in, similar to 90s era java, right up to the built-in IDE.
- mcbishop 5y agoAn actual code explorer that supports module folders / hierarchy is added to the VBA IDE by this: https://rubberduckvba.com/ https://rubberduckvba.com/. (I learned today that Rubber duck exists... I'm looking forward to trying it.)
