Description of operation in VBA macro
Here described is operation of the VBA macro, focusing on the part related to controlling
with SICL.
In order to use SICL in your VBA macro, you must declare functions and define
variables with a definition file of SICL (for VB). In the VBA macro, ctrl_sicllan.xls,
the standard module whose object name is “SICL” is the definition file.
Basic control flow with SICL is shown in Figure 12-4.
NOTE In this sample program, the ivprintf function, the ivscanf function, and the iread function
are used in its communication part; you can use other SICL functions as well. For detail,
refer to sicl.hlp (the online help of SICL).
