EXCELVBAISFUN

Several years back, I got my first opportunity to program in Excel, but when I landed the job, I was asked to re-write our company software (fancy databases and automated Crystal reports).. I found my regular Excel skills somewhat lacking. I HAD TO LEARN VBA!... Excel brings a powerful UI, and despite its many failings, VBA brings a true rapid prototyping capability, and the VBE provides a really convenient debugging environment. Together, that's why the Excel paradigm is still going strong after three decades. I love Python, but web automation with Excel+VBA is so easy, and so powerful that, I have to confess, I'd rather scrape with Excel+VBA... We believe Excel is one of the most versatile programs out there - and learning to program and automate it makes you very valuable!
