How do I include VBA scripting in Visualforce Pages opening as excel

How do I include a Visual Basic macro in a visualforce page that is being rendered as an excel page?

The visualforce page below is rendered as excel: 
<apex:page controller="contactquery" contentType="application/vnd.ms-excel#SalesForceExport.xls" cache="true">
    <apex:pageBlock title="Export Results" >
        <apex:pageBlockTable value="{!cs}" var="contact">
            <apex:column value="{!contact.ID}"/>
            <apex:column value="{!contact.Name}"/>
        </apex:pageBlockTable>
    </apex:pageBlock>
</apex:page>
Here is my controller: 
public class contactquery{
    public List<Contact> cs{get; set;}
    public contactquery()
    {
    cs = new List<Contact>();
       for (Contact c : [Select id, Name from Contact])
       {       
           cs.add(c);
       }
    }
}
Below is my visual basic code 
Sub Auto_Open()

It does'nt seem possible. Because Visualforce page create new xls file and you can't embade code in new created excel file.

You can create another macro file with a button and paste the salesforce generated excel file data to macro file and run the macro.
