#### VBA and Macros VBA Macros are stored in a special data blob that is exposed in the `vbaraw` property of the workbook object when the `bookVBA` option is `true`. They are supported in `XLSM`, `XLSB`, and `BIFF8 XLS` formats. The supported format writers automatically insert the data blobs if it is present in the workbook and associate with the worksheet names.
Custom Code Names (click to show) The workbook code name is stored in `wb.Workbook.WBProps.CodeName`. By default, Excel will write `ThisWorkbook` or a translated phrase like `DieseArbeitsmappe`. Worksheet and Chartsheet code names are in the worksheet properties object at `wb.Workbook.Sheets[i].CodeName`. Macrosheets and Dialogsheets are ignored. The readers and writers preserve the code names, but they have to be manually set when adding a VBA blob to a different workbook.
Macrosheets (click to show) Older versions of Excel also supported a non-VBA "macrosheet" sheet type that stored automation commands. These are exposed in objects with the `!type` property set to `"macro"`.
Detecting macros in workbooks (click to show) The `vbaraw` field will only be set if macros are present, so testing is simple: ```js function wb_has_macro(wb/*:workbook*/)/*:boolean*/ { if(!!wb.vbaraw) return true; const sheets = wb.SheetNames.map((n) => wb.Sheets[n]); return sheets.some((ws) => !!ws && ws['!type']=='macro'); } ```
