Re: running VBA code/macros within Linux

Hi Albretch,

If Word and Excel can run in this environment, then I'd expect any macros that 
manipulate the applications' automation interfaces would work, as well...

If you're asking about using the Windows APIs through VBA code, then the 
answer would be that the same thing would happen as with any other code that 
works with the Windows APIs (Visual Basic, for example).
