Anyone maintaining a pile of VBA macros gets diffs, refactoring and tests in a real editor without leaving the files they already ship.
XLIDE is a VS Code extension for VBA and VB6. It reads and writes the code inside Excel, Word, PowerPoint and Access files by parsing their containers natively, with no COM bridge or extra runtime. It adds host-aware IntelliSense, seven refactorings, a UserForm designer, module import and export with diff previews for version control, and a test runner that drives the Office app on Windows. A sister add-in, xlide_vbide, brings it into the built-in VBA editor.
