Macros in Office 365?
Hi all,
Our office just updated to Office 365, and we no longer have access to the desktop versions of Office apps. I have an Excel workbook with macros important to its functionality, but it appears that in 365, no macros are allowed. Is there an alternative to achieve VBA functions in Office 365's online Excel app? I find it hard to believe that people all over the world will no longer be able to use their spreadsheet VBA functionality when moving to 365... (at least, I'm hoping to hear other news--what a soul crushing blow!). |

Macros are fully supported in Office 365. Maybe your IT Admins have implemented group policies preventing them.

Hmm interesting. That is possible. We have to maintain HIPAA compliance, so I wonder if that's involved here. I'll check. Thank you Paul.

Looks like macro functionality is only disabled in the browser-based app, but we do have access to the Excel 365 (app?) as a desktop version, where my macros appear to live on.

The Web app edition of Office 365 doesn't support the creation, running, or editing of macros. Not only that, the web editions are limited in other areas, too. See:

Those are useful links--thank you Paul. I did notice some of the limitations in Word when I was working on some projects a while back.
