Q: Options for Protection in Commercial Excel Workbooks

Have you considered developing a similar secure solution for protecting and selling Excel files,
Google Sheets is a great tool for organization and data processing, but it is not powerful enough for advanced engineering calculations, where VBA in Excel provides unmatched automation and computational ability. The true value and revenue opportunity lies in securing and selling Excel spreadsheets, as engineers overwhelmingly rely on Excel and VBA for their daily critical tasks. Offering protection and monetization for advanced Excel workbooks would meet a real need in the engineering community and present a strong business opportunity beyond Google Sheets.I strongly encourage you to explore building a platform or features focused on Excel spreadsheet protection and sales to address this significant gap in the market.

A: Nope. I do Google Sheets. I am that Google Sheets guy. Google Sheets has Apps Script. Which in some cases is way better than Excel VBA because it is basically Javascript. A huge community for learning and helping. Also very easy to find someone to manage or take over enginering.

To each their own.

App Script is not way better than VBA and will never I will ever be... Even for the community you hide your face my boy... It's incredible to see a founder veil himself in front of him like that
For me it's negative
