And there are a ton of sites with infor.

Ron has an Add-In that you can download free of charge. It installs a

I am sure that I missed a bunch (forgive me all). But you'll find
references to
them in the ng.

Ed's advice is great! Especially the order in which he listed stuff.

I personnally recommend the Dummy book because it is short and
sweet and jumps you right in.

Hi! Welcome to the club. I'm only about half a step ahead of you.
Here's
what I've done:

1. Use the macro recorder to create your first macros. Alt+F11 will take
you into the VB Editor, where you can look at the code to see what
commands
were used to do what.

2. Spend time just reading here on the newsgroups. There's a lot of
stuff
talked about, and the more you read it the more you get to understand.

3. Search for answers. Use the Help files in the VB Editor. Get a book
at
your level. I had zero experience with any tyoe of programming, so I got
VBA for Dummies to find out what an object was and so forth. If you're
above that, there's lots of books that will take you deeper.

4. Post here with things you don't understand or get stuck on. These
MVPs
are fantastic! Often it will be something fairly simple (missing a space,
wrong object, etc.), and an experienced eye really helps.

5. Check out the web sites recommended within the answers on the
newsgroups. Lots of tips, answers, code, book recommendations, etc.

6. Jump in, make mistakes, fix them, and feel great when it works!

Hi,
I am totally new to VBA. But I can see the need for its use in writing
macros, etc.
What is the easiest and simplest way to get started?
