VBA Editor in Excel

from Stardock Forums

I know this groupy function was removed a while back, but I am wondering why and if this can be reversed. I use VBA Editor in Excel daily for my job, with multiple different excel files, and not being able to group them is becoming more and more annoying. 

I was here before the function was removed, and I thought I could just live with it, but as time goes on I am finding it more and more disruptive as I am creating and editing dozens of forms daily. If at the very least I could be given a logical reason why the function was removed, and if it wasn't some sort of unneeded, or unwarranted change I would feel better about this. 

Luckily Excel itself still allows for grouping, it is just the VBA Editor that has had the function removed for some time.

I don't recall anything being 'removed', rather, if it (any app) does not have a standard title bar, it could have grouping issues.  What might be an interesting test is if you could open VBA without having been launched from within Excel (assuming that is how you access it) that it could then be grouped.

Here it is. I always open it from within Excel, and it does have a standard title bar.

Well, I stand corrected...

Noted but is it possible to open from outside Excel and still edit what you need?

Not to my knowledge as it reads info from excel to process my many 1000's of macros, Some extra info may not help: I open each excel file as its own instance because otherwise, the VBA Editor would show all open excel files in 1 window which can cause macro editing issues.
