Hi,
I have converted an XLS file to EXE. The file is more for information
rather than for data entry or changing values that need to be saved.
I can now double click the EXE and it will start Excel with a copy of
the XLS file.
One advantage of this is that the macros in the original XLS file do
not cause Excel to show the "Enable/Disable" macro alert each time the
file is started.
As this is the first time I have tried this I do not know what are the
potential problems with an XLS converted to EXE.
I would be grateful for any comments or advice on the advantages /
disadvantages of converting XLS to EXE.
If you want to have a look at the converted file its the Excel Function
Dictionary at www.xlfdic.com
The free program I used to convert from XLS to EXE is called XLtoEXE
and is at http://orlando.mvps.org/index.asp#XLtoExe
Thanks.
