Thanks for the sticky Dave.

Yes I'm doing a workshop class on VBA Classes on the Thursday.
And on Friday morning I'm doing a charting presentation.

Here is a link to the conference and add-on sessions

Simon did a fantastic job of organising both the technical and social side of the event.
All the feedback I have had so far has been very positive

I'm sure everybody took away something new and or helpful to there daily use of excel.

Nothing in the way of gossip as we were all too busy discussing technical issues.
Although there were some lively debates about coding styles and VBA's future.

Discussion is already underway for 2008's event.

Re: User Conference 2007

The following is all speculation as there was no NDA information discussed

Concensus was that VBA will be around for many years yet.
That said VBA will not change going forward except in terms of the object model. It was agreed that given time even OM changes may stop.

.Net is probably the way things will go but when and in what shape it will enter the application who knows. A few were suprised that VSTA was not part of xl2007.
