Write Your Own Macros

 
You are welcome to write your own macros to help populate your data sheets.  The data sheets may be in the Wizard workbook or even in separate workbooks.
 
This section is common to all of our tools.  Click on this link to navigate to Common User Instructions: Adding your own Macros
 
The only constraint is you may not store your macros in the Wizard workbook as this is protected.  However, it is a simple matter to store these in a separate workbook.
 
To assist with automating your custom application, we have provided some APIs.
 
Budget Wizard can be saved as an XLA (Excel Addin) and any spreadsheet can invoke the ribbons and the API procedures.
 
We have created a sample spreadsheet that you are welcome to use, to copy or customize as your front-end for Budget Wizard.  This is not password protected.  It may be downloaded from https://outgoing.more4apps.com/permanent/BudgetWizardLite.zip
 
This workbook contains sample procedures showing how you can use Budget Wizard as an engine to upload and download from/into sheets you pass as parameters to the procedures.
 
As a bonus, we have provided an extremely useful API you can use to run any select SQL statement against your database, returning the results in a Variant array.  (For safety reasons only ‘select’ statements are allowed).
 
See the following sample calls to the BW APIs:
 
     Public Sub Upload_Budget()
 
     Public Sub Download_Budget()
 
     Public Sub Get_Variant_Array()
