Default For a website, are Excel scripts better than other programming language scripts?


I'm new to Excel and I'd like to know since it's more organized are the
scripts better than other programming language scripts such as Ajax,
JavaScript, Java FX, etc.

Default For a website, are Excel scripts better than other programming lan

You could get thousands of answers to your question. What is Better? What
is more organized? I guess you don't like the other programming lanugages
that is why you are asking the question. What don't yo like about the other
languages then you can ask is excel better.

Excel scripts are Visual Prgramming Laguage (VBA) which is similar to
microsoft Visual Basic VB6 and VB.Net. The advantages of microsoft languages
is you can use the spreadsheett for I/O and storing data. You can also
access Access, Word, Power Point, Internet Explorer, Outlook from the
language. But there are things you can't do or easier to do from the other
languages you mentioned.

Each programming language has its advantages and disadvantages. None are
perfectrt for every application.

VBA is not "for" website programming (since you mention it)

Maybe you could elaborate a bit ?

Tim: I think you measn that VBA is not meant for creating websites, it is
acceptable for downloading data from websites. table stored on websites with
VBA can be downloaded into a speadsheet and manipultes like any other
spreadsheet data.

I was going by the title of the post which was "For a website..."
It didn't mention downloading, so I took it literally.

If someone who has Excel on their computer goes the website and opens the
Excel file from the website, will the VBA code run?

If the file is downloadable to the user computer, yes. Otherwise, no.
If the file on the web is designed to respond to a user interaction, it
could be described as the code running, but it would only be effective on
the web page and not on the user computer. I am sure this is a clear a mud.

Yes, if you allow it to, but that would be very unwise except maybe in the
context of an intranet.
