Specifically, we’ll be adding Office ribbon customization via Ribbon XML, and making other improvements to Word, Excel, and PowerPoint for Mac to match their Windows desktop versions. In response to this feedback, we’ll further improve Office 2016 for Mac’s support for VBA add-ins. At the same time, some of our users also have sent us feedback requesting further improvements to our VBA support, particularly around VBA add-ins. Since the launch of Office 2016 for Mac in July, Mac OS X users around the world have been able to take advantage of the highly anticipated new features and improvements since the 2011 release.

Support for web add-ins is already available in Office 20 for Windows, Office for iPad, and Outlook for Mac today, and they’ll come to the rest of Office clients over time. One thing to note, our engineering focus is Office web add-ins – web add-ins work across devices and platforms, and developers enjoy a modern web development experience. In addition to the improvements discussed there, including connecting the applications you build to the data and services available in Office 365 and creating add-ins that connect to third-party services, we continue to support developers working in VBA by adding new objects and members to the VBA object model across nearly all the Office applications.
