Description Timur 2021-08-31 07:50:00 UTC 
Open ODS attachment 143194 [details] with Javascript macro from bug 118440.
Save as XLS, XLSX, XLSM.
Open in MSO, buttons are there but without macros.

Note a separate bug 97827. So not clear if there should be any development on the existing engine.

I don't think XLS or XLSX formats allow to save JS scripts inside file

Mike, we need some expert opinion here, could you help?

I also doubt that this is supported by OOXML formats - or at least by MS Office. But I might be wrong, I'm not an expert in MS Office supported features.

There is a JS API for Excel, but of course it is different from our API: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/office/dev/add-ins/reference/overview/excel-add-ins-reference-overview
