Default Excel 2000 Windows VBA vs. Mac Excel 2001 VBA

Hi Sue

Excel 2000 Windows was the first one to use VB6 as its VBA language, while I believe Mac
still use VB5. So everything new in VB6 won't work on a Mac, like string functions split,
join, replace and instrrev. I never used VB5 for real, so I can't provide extensive detail
on this.

"Most things will work fine" may or may not be a comfort, the languages are 99% identical.
A test run on Windows Excel 97 (also VB5) is a good indicator if you don't have a Mac at
hand during development.

What are the compatibility issues between the subject
versions of Excel; and does anyone have any good reference
material or documentation?
