Source code

For most cases, we only need to change files which are under \src.

  • \src\DME_Template_All_7_0.xlsm

Almost all source code are in the file.

  • \src\DB_TableDefinitions.xlsx

Include all table definition data for generated DME_Template_*_.xlsm.

The build process will import these data into these Excel files.

  • \src\DB_Rules.xlsx

Include content for the sheet "Rules" of all generated DME_Template_*_.xlsm.

The build process will import these data into these Excel files.

  • \src\doc\Help.docx

The user guide.

  • \src\tools\DBME_CopyToFile.vbs
  • \src\tools\DBME_RunExcelMacro.vbs
  • \src\tools\Sample.bat

Small utilities for their DevOps processes.

Includes commands to generate SQL script files from the database model excel.

  • src\macro

DO NOT change these files manually. These files are generated during building, and just provide a way to know what we changed in the spreadsheet.
