Actually using VBA in Word is extremely fast. Of course for anything that
doesn't require AppleEvents at all and can be done with TIDs there's no
point using any application. It will always be much faster in pure
AppleScript. But for anything that actually requires Word, using 'do Visual
Basic' is not like 'regular' (flawed) applescripting in Word: it works very
fast indeed. It's a real shame that that's how things are, but they are.
