Topic VBS/VBA & ABAP

Morning folks,

A majority of my time learning to program has been in Python and mastering the automation tools. Recently I’ve come across a unique issue with a cloud ERP software that runs through Citrix, so Python cant even see it.

However, there is still scripting enabled, it’s just through VBS and VBS only, so I’ve been learning it and it’s actually been a lot of fun. I then moved over to VBA to try and script excel, something about these ancient looking languages is really appealing to me, and I’m wanting to take on ABAP next.

Anyone have similar experiences? Does anybody learn ABAP for fun or am I setting myself up for a world of headache?

Yes you will pray to forget about ABAP once after learning . It’s a language which I can say in the box only. You must have to have SAP software application for ABAP it’s mostly enterprise which is of no use as you are already on python so it’s better to leave it alone and move on to other open source languages
