We will build a simple Add-In that will count the number of lines of code for a given program component.
To begin creating the Add-In, start a new project. Choose the AddIn project type. The AddIn project type includes many components necessary for creating VB Add-Ins. There is a form that you can modify to provide a user interface for your Add-In. There is also a designer module that contains the four methods that are needed for the Add-In's interface to VB.
Remove the Ok and Cancel buttons from the form and add the following controls to the form:
Control Type | Property | Value |
Form | Name | FrmAddIn |
Label | Caption | Line Counter |
Label | Caption | Project |
TextBox | Name | txtProject |
Label | Caption | Component |
TextBox | Name | TxtComponent |
CommandButton | Name | CmdCountCodeLines |
Caption | Count Code Lines | |
CommandButton | Name | CmdDone |
Caption | Done | |
Label | Caption | Code Lines |
TextBox | Name | txtCodeLines |
Here is the code:
