Not much, except that the macros would be written to perform different tasks, because Word (word processor) and Excel (spreadsheet) have different functions.

For example Word's Insert menu won't have options like Cells, Rows and Columns that Excel will have, but will have options like Autotext, Reference and Field, that Excel won't have. As the two applications are for different jobs, they are naturally going to have different options. Some things will be common, like options to open, close and save files, or to cut, copy and paste things.

The same applies to other applications which will have a lot of the same menus and options and also have menus and options that are specific to those applications.
