VBA in Word 2007

[Kaarle]

I have an application that creates reports from my database using VBA macros.
It has been rather videly used for several years now. I have tried to look at
word 2007 specs but cannot find any mention of VBA. Will VBA still be
supported in word 2007?

Hi Kaarle

Yes, VBA is still supported in Word 2007.

There are significant changes to the file structure of Word documents, and
changes in some features, and these require testing to see what still works
and what might need to be changed. And, since the Ribbon has replaced Word's
toolbars, any custom toolbars in your application will be shown in a
separate AddIns tab on the Ribbon. You'll lose some of your careful crafting
of toolbar controls.

Hope this helps.
