  VBA
  
     <programming> (VBA) Microsoft's common language for
     manipulating components of its Microsoft Office suite.  It
     is used as the macro language for these applications and is
     the primary means of customising and extending them.  A VBA
     program operates on objects representing the application and
     the entities it manipulates, e.g. a spreadsheet or a range
     of cells in Microsoft Excel.
