The existing text is factually incorrect in stating "VBA is incompatible with any of them except Visual Basic".
VBA is compatible with twinBASIC. VBA source code can be run in twinBASIC. This is a fact, not "soapboxing, advertising or promotion". Steve-Aug2024 (talk) 23:06, 1 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
That Wikipedia article is not a place to namedrop unrelated third-party software. Putting it in the article where it does not belong is promotional. MrOllie (talk) 23:08, 1 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
In what way can software which is backwards compatible with VBA be considered "unrelated"? Steve-Aug2024 (talk) 23:18, 1 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
VBA is a proprietary implementation. That someone cloned it (or more accurately, parts of it) is irrelevant. MrOllie (talk) 23:28, 1 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
