Pool 3D game with Artificial Intelligence in VB6 (by Mikle)

Look at my new game. Written, as usual, on the VB6, size - 32 KB (compressed by UPX). Works on Windows from XP to 10, does not require installation. System requirements are minimal (all in ReadMe). You can play together or against the AI, or watch two AI battle.

VBA to JSON converter (by Tim Hall)

JSON conversion and parsing for VBA (Windows and Mac Excel, Access, and other Office applications). It grew out of the excellent project [vba-json](https://code.google.com/p/vba-json/),

with additions and improvements made to resolve bugs and improve performance (as part of [VBA-Web](https://github.com/VBA-tools/VBA-Web)).

Download from ME

Tested in Windows Excel 2013 and Excel for Mac 2011, but should apply to 2007+.

## Options



VBA-JSON includes a few options for customizing parsing/conversion if needed:



- __UseDoubleForLargeNumbers__ (Default = `False`) VBA only stores 15 significant digits, so any numbers larger than that are truncated.

  This can lead to issues when BIGINT's are used (e.g. for Ids or Credit Cards), as they will be invalid above 15 digits.

  By default, VBA-JSON will use `String` for numbers longer than 15 characters that contain only digits, use this option to use `Double` instead.

- __AllowUnquotedKeys__ (Default = `False`) The JSON standard requires object keys to be quoted (`"` or `'`), use this option to allow unquoted keys.

- __EscapeSolidus__ (Default = `False`) The solidus (`/`) is not required to be escaped, use this option to escape them as `\/` in `ConvertToJson`.



```VB.net

JsonConverter.JsonOptions.EscapeSolidus = True

```



## Installation



1. Download the [latest release](https://github.com/VBA-tools/VBA-JSON/releases)

2. Import `JsonConverter.bas` into your project (Open VBA Editor, `Alt + F11`; File > Import File)

3. Add `Dictionary` reference/class

   - For Windows-only, include a reference to "Microsoft Scripting Runtime"

   - For Windows and Mac, include [VBA-Dictionary](https://github.com/VBA-tools/VBA-Dictionary)
