There is an awful lot of mission critical software written in VBA. I've
heard people from Microsoft say they will give at least 2 versions of office
for notification of major changes. However, unless there is an automatic
upgrade to VSTO for VBA code many organizations would stay with the last
version of Office that supports VBA. Don't forget other products such as
AutoCad license VBA for their products as well.
