Getting started in VBA

Prerequisites

Before you get started install Dynamic RibbonX on your PC (see Installation)

Referencing the library

1. Create a new project in your favourite office application
2. Add a VBA reference to the Dynamic RibbonX library (Tools->References)

   

3. The library is now ready to use. In the immediate window enter

   ?rxCustomUI.defaultInstance.targetOfficeVersion

   This should print the major version of the office platform you are using. If you are running in an older version of office you will get a runtime error instead (the error message is for excel in this case)

   

Writing some code!

It is recommended that you go through the examples below in the order in which they appear, as each example builds up on previous examples.

• A 'hello world' VBA program
• Creating our first button in VBA
