Yeah but years of macros over macros that keep the business running won't be easily ported to a new solution.

Sure, and being forced to redo it is probably a good thing in the long run.

Maybe they'll get a developer to build it into a reusable product instead of relying on Jim in accounting to fix the macros to get it working after an update. Or maybe they'll realize they could get the same result with a pivot table and clever formulas.
