Python is soon to be integrated into excel, I might not be a python fan but if it's gonna replace vba I'm all for it.
It'll only run on cloud. Their employer would probably block that too.
Afaik the python is ran on Microsoft servers, so not exactly a perfect solution. I doubt it will run offline at all
Wouldn't it face the exact same security issues as VBA, with drive-by installs of obfuscated malware and executions of arbitrary code?
Can you not say that too loudly please
You don't understand. "Security" is always the goto reason for either changing or leaving stuff as is, if companies don't want to state the real reason.
People are used to ccept "Security" as a reason for almost anything.
I remember once where a MS guy (someone higher up, don't remeber who, is many years ago...) was asked why the Windows filesystems are case-insensitive and stated the reason was security, so that one file cannot be named the same with just different upper/lowercasing letters. Classic deflection.
