[AccessD] VBA question

I have  an O'Reilly book titled "writing Excel Macros" which is a detailed
description of Excel VBA so at least one authority doesn't mind using the
term Macro.

I know the word is a hold over from earlier Basic versions, but I wouldn't
use the term macro to describe a VBA procedure, whether it's a sub or
function -- is there something else in Word and Excel? I'm not familiar with
the structure if there is.

I know the Excel expert at Cobb continued to use the term for eons after VBA
and the VBE showed up. I argued with him on occasion. We produced a VBA
product together and we had a lot of trouble trying to use consistent
language. :)
