Intro Con't
Office Scripts
- Online version of VBA
- Built to run in Excel online
- similar to GoogleDocs App Scripts, but based on TypeScript instead of Javascript
- TS is a subset of JS, so we can use JS as well

Accessing Scripts
In Excel online (Business version only)
- an Automate tab in the ribbon bar
- the Ribbon allows to record actions (just like vba)
- Create a blank New Script
- Open existing Scripts
- and Automate a Task with a Power Automate template
- The Record function
- does not record every action
- uses selections instead of references
- does show good notes and is a good way to learn
// comment
let a: string = 'code'
