Is it possible to build a custom library (.dll) for Excel? If so can someone point me in the right direction?

Thanks,

Yes.

VB (not VBA) can make DLL files.

So build it in VB and then use it in VBA? Do you have an example or a site that I can use as a reference/How to?

Thanks,

You build the DLL in VB (make it a DLL project).

Compile it.

Register it using Regsvr32.

Once registered, you can use it by adding a reference to it in VBA.

"Do you have an example or a site that I can use as a reference/How to?"

Try googling.

BTW: other programming languages can build DLL files, not just VB.
