Sergei thanks for the info, I didn't research the exact status beforehand, my mistake.

I only researched online and found that there are still some topics regarding Python in Excel. Anyway, thanks for the information and clarification.

Info: Some users report that Python in Excel was initially available, but then suddenly stopped working (reddit.com).

Even after rollout, some users still experience unstable or inconsistent availability.

Overall, it’s encouraging to see Python integrated into Excel, and I look forward to exploring its capabilities as it continues to roll out and stabilize.
