Default VBA book


VBA hasn't changed much,


I would amend that statement to "VBA hasn't change at all". I can't
think of anything new in VBA since VBA6 in 2000. Excel, of course, has
changed, but VBA hasn't been updated in a decade (other than the port
to 64 bit), and probably never will be updated.

Cordially,

That's a good book, certainly a frequent entry in recommended books.

The backward compatibility is not a thing to worry greatly about, VBA hasn't
changed much, just make sure that you either develop on the previous
versions or test with it.
