I once used VBA to script and automate 90% of my old desk job. I just needed a way to automate keyboard input and some basic conditional controls.

I couldn't install python or run batch scripts as the machine was heavily locked down, but luckily MS provided all the tools I needed inside excel. System admins hate this one trick, thanks microsoft!

haha yeah same. We had this terrible internal CMS that I would automate the hell out of.
