《Excel 专业开发》提供了很多很好的开发框架,以表格驱动来建立自定义菜单就是其中一个很好的框架。

使用表格驱动建立菜单,可以很方便很简单地管理自定义菜单,节约开发与维护成本。

如果要建立如下图所示的菜单项:

菜单

只需要按如下格式输入自定义菜单信息:

Command Bar Name[1] Control Caption[2] Control Caption[3] Control Caption[4] Position[5] IsMenubar[6] Visible[7] Width[8] Protection[9] IsTemporary[10] IsEnabled[11] OnAction[12] Control ID[13] Control Type[14] Control Style[15] Face ID[16] Begin Group[17] Before[18] Tooltip[19] Shortcut Text[20] Tag[21] Parameter[22] State[23] ListRange[24] Lists[25]
Worksheet Menu Bar
mf-Utility 10 Window
拆分表格(&S) MenuSplitTable 461 Split one table to more tables
多表模式拆分记录(&R) MenuSplitTable_MultiSheets 461 Split one table to more tables with multi sheets
多表模式拆分记录二(&M) MenuSplitTable_MultiSheets_Mode2 461 Split one table to more tables with multi sheets
导出记录(&E) MenuExtractRecords 659 Extract records
多表模式导出记录(&T) MenuExtractRecords_MultiSheets 659 Extract records with multi-sheets
删除文件夹(&D) FALSE MenuDeleteFolders 2500 TRUE Delete folders
在线帮助(&H) MenuOnlineHelp 4087 TRUE Online help (Website:http://www.myfootprints.cn)
退出(&X) AppExit 868 TRUE Exit My Footprints Utility
Stop

以下程序(MCommandBars.bas)将会根据如上输入的信息,自动构建出自定义的菜单。当需要更改、删除或者添加自定义的菜单项时,只需要在上面的表格中修改即可,而不需要更改程序代码。

' 06    Initial version
' 07    Added Window menu to support multiple-document interface
' 08    Replaced the item-by-item method of v7 with a new table-driven
'       commandbar builder. The wksCommandBars worksheet contains the table.
' 12    Added error handling to all non-trivial procedures.
