Hi SouthCarolina, believe it or not, another really good source of books is
the Microsoft Press, this series of books on hundreds of topics has really
come into its own. The books are user friendly, not necessarily written by
Microsoft employees anymore, I find them to be as good as QUE books. Check
out the selection he

As post script to Rob's previous post, I highly recommend the the "Excel 2002
Visual Basic for Applications" writtten by Reed Jacobson, in the Microsoft
press Step By Step series or the "Excel 2003 Programming Inside Out" written
by Curtis Frye, Wayne Freeze and Felicia Buckingham, also published by
Microsoft Press.

The Inside Out book is a bit more in depth, but still a good beginner book,
and the Step by Step book is an excellent book for a classroom, as I've
taught many a class using that as the material. It will give you a thorough
understanding of the basic principals of programming and possibly show a cool
Excel trick or two to boot.
