RegEx with Excel VBA on Mac

You can use VBA’s Like operator. It’s a very limited regex tester only.

Microsoft Word has it’s standard wildcards plus if you tick Use Wildcards it is a Regex engine (plus find words that sound the same, and words with the same root). So use Word rather than Vbscript’s RegEx.

Just record a Find and Replace in Word and you’ll get most of the program written for you that you’ll just need to adapt.
