xlwings与其他Office应用¶

除了Excel，从Office的其他应用(如Outlook， Access等)中，也可以在VBA中通过xlwings调用Python函数。

备注

This is an experimental feature and may be removed in the future. Currently, this functionality is only available on Windows for UDFs. The RunPython functionality is currently not supported.

如何使用¶

As usual, write your Python function and import it into Excel (see User Defined Functions (UDFs)).
Press Alt-F11 to get into the VBA editor, then right-click on the xlwings_udfs VBA module and select Export File.... Save the xlwings_udfs.bas file somewhere.
Switch into the other Office app, e.g. Microsoft Access and click again Alt-F11 to get into the VBA editor. Right-click on the VBA Project and Import File..., then select the file that you exported in the previous step. Once imported, replace the app name in the first line to the one that you are using, i.e. Microsoft Access or Microsoft Outlook etc. so that the first line then reads: #Const App = "Microsoft Access"
Now import the standalone xlwings VBA module (xlwings.bas). You can find it in your xlwings installation folder. To know where that is, do:

>>> import xlwings as xw
>>> xlwings.__path__

And finally do the same as in the previous step and replace the App name in the first line with the name of the corresponding app that you are using. You are now able to call the Python function from VBA.

配置¶

The other Office apps will use the same global config file as you are editing via the Excel ribbon add-in. When it makes sense, you'll be able to use the directory config file (e.g. you can put it next to your Access or Word file) or you can hardcode the path to the config file in the VBA standalone module, e.g. in the function GetDirectoryConfigFilePath (e.g. suggested when using Outlook that doesn't really have the same concept of files like the other Office apps). NOTE: For Office apps without file concept, you need to make sure that the PYTHONPATH points to the directory with the Python source file. For details on the different config options, see Config.
