"Applications" was a very common term in the classic Mac days. "Programs" was a more Windows-y term. ("Applications" vs "Program Files" in ye olden 90s world of where to put things you installed.)

IIRC, even the default template on Windows in the early 90s with Visual Studio was MFCApp.
And VBA stands for Visual Basic for Applications.
