Hello All!

Does anyone know of changes done to Excel when the SP3 has been installed, compared to SP2? I mean such kind of changes that actually affect Excel Macro developers/users in daily life.

Thank You,


Roopher

Excel Facts

Which came first: VisiCalc or Lotus 1-2-3?
Dan Bricklin and Bob Frankston debuted VisiCalc in 1979 as a Visible Calculator. Lotus 1-2-3 debuted in the early 1980's, from Mitch Kapor.
I don't know of any specifics, but this link may help, but I cannot access it due to work restrictions:

cari-mangsa.blogspot.com/2008/05/office-2003-service-pack-3-sp3.html

This is what the google description says about it:

"Some of the changes in Service Pack 3 modify the behavior of Office 2003, ... Certain macros in older Excel file formats have increased security"

I just tried a web search for "excel macros sp3 versus sp2"

Hope that helps.
