- **Indent Size** (number): Enter indent size (1-8)
- **Convert Keywords to Uppercase** (checkbox)
- **Add Line Numbers** (checkbox)
- **Remove Comments** (checkbox)

## When to use

- Before sharing your VBA macros with colleagues to ensure professional code quality.
- When inheriting messy or unformatted legacy code that is difficult to debug.
- During the final stages of script development to standardize indentation and keyword casing.

## How it works

- Paste your raw VBA code into the input area.
- Adjust the indentation size and toggle options like keyword capitalization or line numbering.
- Click the format button to instantly generate a clean, structured version of your script.

## Use cases

- Standardizing team-wide coding conventions for shared Excel workbooks.
- Preparing code snippets for documentation or technical blog posts.
- Cleaning up recorded macros that often contain redundant or poorly formatted lines.

## Frequently asked questions

### Does this tool change the logic of my code?

No, the formatter only adjusts the visual structure, indentation, and casing; it does not alter the functional logic of your VBA script.

### Can I remove comments from my code?

Yes, you can enable the 'Remove Comments' option to strip all comments from your code for a cleaner production version.

### What is the maximum indentation size?

You can set the indentation size between 1 and 8 spaces to match your preferred coding style.

### Will this tool work with complex Excel macros?

Yes, the formatter is designed to handle standard VBA syntax, including loops, conditional statements, and subroutines.

### Is my code stored on your servers?

We prioritize your privacy; code processed through this tool is not stored or saved after the formatting operation is complete.
