is VBA going to die in another decade? what is the Office.JS is it going to replace VBA?
i learned the basics of VBA and yet a long way to learn more.
i see no further development by MSFT on the VBA, i am wondering if it is worth investing in learning the VBA. the reason i ask this, is because, i see many expensive training tutorials are provided by VBA experts and yet i see conflicting rumors that VBA will die soon perhaps in 10 to 15 years. i googled and found that MSFT is promoting and developing Office.JS javascript programing in office apps. is this javascript thing going to replace VBA? what happens to the millions of codes build for VBA? what will happen to the legacy of tools solutions etc?
if javascript is way to go, then how to learn the office.js, do i need to first become pro in VBA then learn javascript or learning javascript would suffice and i do not have to invest in VBA and straight jump to office.js
please share your insights if you know what is happening with these VBA and MSFT moving toward another language OOP for office apps.
