Most things related to Basic (the programming language) will work in Excel too, but as soon as you want to do spreadsheet related things, it won't work at all, unless you simulate all that UNO stuff by writing your own objects for them in Excel, but you will need to create a lot of objects… :P If Apache OpenOffice supported VBA (Visual Basic for Applications), then you'd have to buy it, just like you buy MS Office.
