Hi Ian and welcome on the dark side

VBA, VBS are still fine but somehow forgotten by many. From what I know/understand, VBA will still imply the end user to have EXCEL/ACESS installed on their computer, but now many use Open Office because it's a fine environment... and free.

VBS on the other hand just require a Windows installation... but making a simple GUI with is way too limited

VB/C# on the other hand, makes GUI design a breeze, not to mention the abundance of resources all 'round the web. The EXPRESS versions are free for personal purpose too.

Keep us posted!
