VBA library of Perlish functions (list utilities) (Score:1)

At this rate, I might make VBA almost usable, though I doubt it as there are so many deficiencies in this braindead language, so many things that it's designed not to be able to do...
I've created a VBA module with a number of Perllike list utilities - makeList, makeHash, split, join, push, pop, shift etc.. I was going to post the module for your interest, (if you're using VBA, or just want to laugh at the tortuous syntax) but I got this use.perl error:
Lameness filter encountered.
Your comment violated the "postercomment" compression filter. Try less whitespace and/or less repetition. Comment aborted.
How appropriate. If you want a copy of this, give me a shout (/msg me on perlmonks for example).
