Yes, but native support in Excel for R would be much more interesting to me and certainly the businesses we sell to.

yes - i'd love to see native Python & R support in excel as well. they are aware that better scripting support is needed - they just need to hear it from more ppl to make it a priority. i'll point them at this thread meanwhile.

I read somewhere that VBA is replaced by javascript in office 2016, which comes out this summer.
