Do you guys know of any tool that can help me onverting a vba classic code
base to ruby?
I am not talking about GUIs and stuff, just good old plain business logic.

If I can't find any tool I will go for one of these two solutions:
* vba parsing and ruby generation

OR

* I could do some basic text substitution on the VBA files to make them
well-formed for ruby and then try to run them as ruby code.  Of course I
will write and include libraries that wrap around ruby objects (eg:
Collection will wrap around Array).

I can hardly resist trying the second option :-)  has any of you tried
anything like that before?
