Convert Excel Files To EXE Windows Executable Apps - ExcelVbaIsFun Demo Excerpt - Pt 1 

Haha! You, sir, are DELIGHTFUL! 👍👍

Hmm. What version of Excel do you have? It should work with all of them

Hi George, Thanks for the comment. Here's a demo of the process (it's not published yet, still Unlisted, but I wanted you to have access if you wanted). 👉 ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-zu3ux1_a4hU.html Thanks Dan

@@ExcelVbaIsFun XLS padlock is the best I have found till now, but still, even if you hide all ribbons, it is clear that it is an excel file. In your video above you can hide excel and show only userform which is interesting, but the truth is that all the data are in cells , not in userform. I have done a deep search of how to convert an excel file to exe and till now the best way - but not perfect - is through XLS Padlock... I have tried all other excel to .exe apps and all of them are garbage.. I hope XLS Padlock to find a way to hid completely the excel when it runs. I guess it needs something more than a vba code... maybe it needs visual basic script

Yes, in the video we use VBA along with XLSPadlock to hide the application as well as the Excel splash screen. Best to be transparent with end users that you have a compiled windows application that requires end users to have Excel for best ease of use, familiar interface and for the reporting Engine (or that most of your report outputs are in Excel for easy manipulation and tranfer). Hope that helps.
