Listening to this guy is interesting. He is the first out of a series of Private Equity guys who was not briefed by the marketing department on the fancy buzz words.
They help companies with 8 figures, that is 12.345.678 ... a lot .., turnover to sell themselves to bigger companies looking to stitch several together for profit, simplified speaking.
So, having a 15 million turn over per year, you do your books based on a green number on the banking app. That's what he said, explaining "heterogeneous data formats and systems" established by doing over building a Controlling.
Actually, a large company does not work any different than a small household. Your income is the big companies collected bills. The unpayed bills are your overtime account. Your credit line is just the same as with a big company, how much you can turn the green account number into a red one before calling mum, dad or your besty stressing your social relationships.
The spendings are rent, car insurance and what you need to get to work, being flexible on the weekends and vacation, the wise also save equaling rent, company cars and air miles, being flexible on office equipment and the Christmas Buffet.
There are plenty of apps around and as much software systems, but yeah, Excel can do fine to sort for "gym gear" and if you recorded properly you mind find that your gym cloth spending are getting out of hand instead of wondering what cloths you actually bought before having a look by opening the closet, which would be calling PWC or EY.
I just assumed when it says millions in the amount.... oh my God, do they USBee Excel sheets around offices considering Visual Basic a strange underwear brand??
You can ask for help, just dare! It is our English, innit??
We might need an upfront to get a suit ...and we are out...

PS: But untested and your preferred AI model does understand error messages, if being told. Just saying, you know.
Here's a VBScript template to transfer data between Excel files over a LAN. Replace the placeholders (in `<``>`) with your specific details:
```vb
Set objExcel = CreateObject("Excel.Application")
objExcel.Visible = False ' Set to True for debugging
objExcel.DisplayAlerts = False
' Define paths (use UNC paths for network locations)
strSourceFile = "<SOURCE_FILE_PATH>" ' e.g., "C:\LocalFolder\Source.xlsx"
strDestFile = "<DESTINATION_FILE_PATH>" ' e.g., "\\Server\SharedFolder\Destination.xlsx"
' Define sheet names and ranges
strSourceSheet = "<SOURCE_SHEET_NAME>" ' e.g., "Sheet1"
strDestSheet = "<DESTINATION_SHEET_NAME>" ' e.g., "Sheet1"
strSourceRange = "<SOURCE_RANGE>" ' e.g., "A1:D20"
strDestRange = "<DESTINATION_START_CELL>" ' e.g., "A1"
On Error Resume Next
' Open source workbook
Set wbSource = objExcel.Workbooks.Open(strSourceFile)
If Err.Number <> 0 Then
MsgBox "Error opening source file: " & Err.Description
objExcel.Quit
WScript.Quit
End If
On Error Goto 0
' Open destination workbook
On Error Resume Next
Set wbDest = objExcel.Workbooks.Open(strDestFile)
If Err.Number <> 0 Then
MsgBox "Error opening destination file: " & Err.Description
wbSource.Close False
objExcel.Quit
WScript.Quit
End If
On Error Goto 0
' Copy data
wbSource.Sheets(strSourceSheet).Range(strSourceRange).Copy
wbDest.Sheets(strDestSheet).Range(strDestRange).PasteSpecial -4163 ' xlPasteValues
' Save and close
wbDest.Close True
wbSource.Close False
objExcel.Quit
' Cleanup
Set wbDest = Nothing
Set wbSource = Nothing
Set objExcel = Nothing
MsgBox "Data transfer completed successfully!"
```
**Instructions:**
1. Replace all `<PLACEHOLDER>` values with your actual paths/settings
2. Test with `Visible = True` first to verify functionality
3. Ensure both computers have appropriate network permissions:
- Read access to source file location
- Write access to destination location
- Network drives should be mapped or use UNC paths (`\\ComputerName\SharedFolder\File.xlsx`)
**Key Considerations:**
- Uses Excel's Copy/PasteSpecial for values only (prevents formula copying)
- Error handling for file access issues
- Runs in background by default (`Visible = False`)
- Requires Excel to be installed on the machine running the script
**Security Notes:**
- Avoid storing passwords in the script
- Use UNC paths instead of mapped drives for reliability
- Ensure network stability for file access
Let me know if you need help with specific network path formatting or additional functionality!

Please write my with spaceholders a VB script for MS Excel to forward data from through a LAN to another Excel sheet.
#:-)
Ah:
How much faster is that on a standard Ethernet LAN compared to USB 3.0??
[...technical theoretical AI bla bla...]
Ok. Can you break that down onto an Excel Sheet with 4 MB data considering that you have to write on one computer and read on another, plus walk to that computer instead of doing a mouseclick and break it in the summary down onto X% faster, please. Do an educated guess...
[... more technical theoretical AI bla bla...]
Conclusion (The "X% Faster" Answer)
For a 4 MB file, using a Gigabit LAN is approximately 2,000% faster than the USB 3.0 "walk-it-over" method.
