The “Everything We Could Find on Microsoft VBA” List

We’ve compiled this list so that you have quick access to a number of resources that you can leverage to get your
VBA questions answered. The sections below aren’t really in any logical order, but we do recommend that you first
check the Microsoft Support Knowledge Base in case your issue has already been resolved and posted.

If your business needs dedicated VBA support, wants to license VBA or needs the latest VBA SDK, you need to
connect with Summit Software, Microsoft’s support and licensing partner for VBA.
