excel-messenger

A silly local group messaging app where the server and all clients are excel workbooks.

Note: this is not a real app, just an excel demo of the client-server paradigm, see the original blog post that started this.

Features:

  • Only works on a local network
  • Clients all reference server sheet to get the master chat list
  • Server references nicknames and messages from client worksheets, adding them to the master chat list and shifting everything up
  • All sheets are autosaving constantly
  • Messages can take over 40 seconds to be received

New user interface:

Auto-Resolve root folder

The root_folder variable needs to be set in each client, could use something like Application.ActiveWorkbook.Path to get this automatically.
