A deep chill ran down my spine as I remember all of those VBA tools I updated/generated during my first internship... some of those are still being used in some semi-industrial applications.....
- kijin 2y agoNo worries, they probably haven't updated Excel since you left.
- BMc2020 2y agoIIRC, MS has not updated VBA since 2007, but they can't get rid of it because of the millions or billions of spreadsheets out there that still require it. They are trying to push excelscript aka typescript aka office scripts but uptake has been very slow.
- Turing_Machine 2y agoYep. Turn off VBA and the world burns. That's only a slight exaggeration, if it is an exaggeration at all (there are all kinds of splody things that are managed by VBA scripts that some intern wrote back in 1999, or that can only be modified by Bob, who retired back in 2006).
