WordBASIC was a subset of Microsoft QuickBASIC customized for word-processing in Microsoft Word. It was replaced by Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) when Word 97 was released. Contrarily to VBA, WordBasic was not object-oriented but consisted of a flat list of approximately 900 commands.

Contrarily to VBA, WordBasic was not object-oriented but consisted of a flat list of approximately 900 commands. ==Example code== The following code snippets show the difference between WordBasic and VBA with a "Hello, World!" example: WordBasic: Sub MAIN FormatFont .Name = "Arial", .Points = 10 Insert "Hello, World!" End Sub VBA: Public Sub Main() With Selection.Font .Name = "Arial" .Size = 10 End With Selection.TypeText Text:="Hello, World!" End Sub ==References==
