It's COM automation with VB.NET or C# and that means interop. He may get a VBA answer but if you've
worked with Office automation then you know that it often won't port directly to a VB.NET solution
without some modification.
And no the answer is not language independent. The solution is specific to VBA and the .NET language
under which the interop occurs.
