Subject:Re: good forum for Word macro / VBA advice? From:Chris Morton <salt -dot- morton -at- gmail -dot- com> To:techwr-l -at- lists -dot- techwr-l -dot- com Date:Thu, 26 Apr 2012 09:24:27 -0700
A very active forum, with timely and accurate answers, is also the reason
why I fell in love with Wilson Windoware's WinBatch
<http://winbatch.com/>high-level scripting language years ago (it's
been on the Windows scene
since the late '80s, predating even Windows 3.0). I have long found it far
easier to use yet more powerful than Microsoft's bloated VBA.

an unpaid evangelist who has done a lot with this tool.
