VBA Enabler pre-requisites

Anonymous · ‎09-07-2012

I'm carrying out some testing on 64bit platform for AutoCAD 2012 and VBA Enabler. However, I notice that one of the pre-reqs for VBA Enabler is still an old version of Microsoft VBA 6.03.

Does anyone know if there is a more up to date version of MS VBA that can/should be installed for 64bit clients?

Thanks

VBA is still a 32 bit application it's been modified to "work" in a 64 bit enviroment. AFAIK, Microsoft will not sell an updated license of VBA to any third party developer and as such we are stuck with this version.

Thanks for the response Articad. So basically I have to install VBA 6.03 as included in the VBA Enabler download in order for VBA to work in CAD 2012? Nice.

Yup, You should look at porting your code into VB.net.

You can still use the same com interface in .net and port your code.

of course it will take more effort to get it into native managed code.
