vinylpusher,
I'd argue that point. You can do some pretty cool things with Word 2003 and Excel 2003, as far as page layout goes. With VBA, you can drive Word from Excel and get the best of both worlds.
Having said that, I've just fired up Publisher 2007, and it does have VBA.
I've found, though, that some VBA macros are not coming across properly in Office 2007. I'm debugging some other guy's crap, and he's got the Excel VAB stuff littered with API calls and other assorted garbage, and it's breaking. But, the problems seem to be confined to the API declarations and the window subclassing.
EDIT: Are you sure Publisher 2003 doesn't have VBA? Because I've just been in a VirtualPC where I keep an Office XP, and Publisher XP definitely has VBA.
Publisher is arguably the best software to generate professional looking invoices, delivery notes, statements etc.
