    Because Microsoft is phasing out VBA, whereas OpenOffice.org is primarily aimed at ex-MS Office users?

    Yeah. And VBA is one of the prime offenders of "too much access" leading to security issues. VBA was so rife with holes the only solution was to put a bullet in it's head. And we want OS X and Linux to open up to VBA macro worms & virii why???
