Visual Basic. And I don't think any of the MS clients on the Mac has the
same VB that the Windows machines have.

Oh, the one thing people should do on the Mac, though, is to disable viewing
things as HTML. It is just barely possible, especially if you've not
changed any disk or folder naming from the defaults, that someone could
conceivably cause a problem with a Javascript. Personally, I disable that
just so those annoying single pixel graphics that act as 'spys' don't have a
chance.
