Excel VBA & iPad

[BrianExcel]

Does anyone know how to use VBA for iPad? I wrote a form that our traveling sales folks use, and we want to manipulate it for iPad so they can use on the go, but when they open the workbook, not only does it not display ActiveX controls (or form options), but it also doesn't even give the option to enable macros.

They are using (I believe) Office 2007....any ideas? Or can someone point me in another direction as far as Excel VBA programming for iPad?

Hi Brian

iPad runs a version of the iPhone OS so I would be monumentally surprised if it was running a PC version of MS Office (like Office 2007). I have zero experience with iPhones or iPads but at most I would think they might have a cut down version of Mac Office - even if it was a full version of Office 2008 (the Mac version of Office 2007) then this doesn't come with VBA I'm afraid.

Thanks Richard. That's what I was afraid of, but I definitely appreciate the response.
