Locates ThisWorkbook.Worksheets and ThisWorkbook.Sheets calls that appear to be dereferencing a worksheet that is already accessible at compile-time with a global-scope identifier.
Inspection type: LanguageOpportunities
Default severity: Suggestion
Sheet names can be changed by the user, as can a worksheet's index in ThisWorkbook.Worksheets. Worksheets that exist in ThisWorkbook at compile-time are more reliably programmatically accessed using their CodeName, which cannot be altered by the user without accessing the VBE and altering the VBA project.
This inspection will only run if the Excel library is referenced.
For performance reasons, the inspection only evaluates hard-coded string literals; string-valued expressions evaluating into a sheet name are ignored.
The following quick-fixes are available for this inspection:
Each example is a self-contained MCVE showing the feature in a single specific scenario.
Module1
by default, these are general-purpose standard procedural modules.Class1
by default, these modules define the default interface for an object of that type.VB_PredeclaredId
attribute set to True
(with or without a @PredeclaredId
annotation).@Interface
annotation) whose default interface is not a class type intended to be instantiated.
