Libre isn't great. You might as well pick up a full copy of Office from somewhere like CJS keys for about 10-20quid.
Hi Shaun,
Thanks for that I have an older copy of XL and it only codes in VBA
.Just wondered if Libre worked with BA because it has Python capabilities .I have just found out however that modern versions of XL also has Python capabilities , predominantly however it's in Office 365..another MS spy in the sky ,so they can shove that where the sun dont shine. 
I will plod on with VBA in XL with BA stuff and use Libre for other kinds of analysis..non BA related.
Regards
Tico

You can still get office 2024 pro on a perpetual licence. No annual subs. But if you're worried about MS spyware you should ditch Windows.tico wrote: ↑Sat Nov 29, 2025 12:15 pmHi Shaun,
