ExcelBanter - Visual Studio for Office ??

Hi Damir

Well, it "the next generation" as stated. .NET is a lot about managed code and about XML.
I have only seen it very briefly, it accesses Office's object model and let you use those
+ VS's components for Office applications/addins. Like COM addins when it comes to
creating them, I think.

For us elderly VB6/VBA-users there is a learning curve, and I believe the backwards
compatibility for Office versions is between one and none. As in every "the next
generation" I guess. If you have VS.NET background then I bet it's nothing but great.
