very old excel macros

[werjocks]

Hi,
I've been tasked with converting very old excel macros to vba, as they are not supported by excel 2000. But to my surprise, they seem to work in excel 2003. Now have I gone crazy and am interpreting this wrong, or is 2003 really backwards compatible? Also, does anyone have a good tutorial reference to the old excel format?

I don't know why you are saying:

very old excel macros ... they are not supported by excel 2000

... as I have used them many times in Excel 2000. This is from the Microsoft website:

Although you cannot record new Microsoft Excel 4.0 macros in Microsoft Excel 2000, you can run and modify existing XLM macros.

You can also download the help file for the macro commands:
