Default MOD giving different results???

When I wrinte this worksheet function in a spreadsheet:

= MOD ( -11993.4 , 29.53058867 )

...I get 25.55 - which is what I want...

...but if I do the same in VBA:

MsgBox -11993.4 Mod 29.53058867

...I get -23 !!!


How come MOD provides different answers, depending on if you're using it
in a spreadsheet or in a VBA-code???

How to make the VBA-code provide the result, that I want?


because these are two different functions just sharing the same name :)


another example

try trim in excel and trim in vba.

and use " aaa bbb " as example
