Again, you cannot "open" VBA. VBA is not a program that can be opened. It is
an execution environment suppled by a dll. Office programs supply an
Integrated Development Environment (IDE) that is used to edit and debug
code. The IDE is not executing the code: it compiles the text and passes the
compilation to the VBA dll which does the execution. I suspect your CAD
program is doing something similar. |
You may be splitting hairs here. MS did license VBA to a number of
other companies to use in their software. I think AutoCad was on that
list. So Ron Pai's description of what is happening might not use the
exact technical terms but seems reasonable enough to me.
