Thanks Norman, I've added your link
Computer Club or SIG near you
http://www.microsoft.com/mindshare/find/default.aspx
to my search.htm page along with these
APCUG User Group Online Locator
http://cdb.apcug.org/loclist.asp
and another one
Ash Nallawalla's List of Computer User Groups on the Web
http://easyrsvp.com/ugotw/

So John, you've got at least one computer club in Sydney (no kidding),
you would have to look at their site to actually see what SIGs
they have. If they don't have an Excel or VBA Special Interest
Group then John, you're IT <grin

Needless to say most clubs are going to have a several SIGs and
they are only going to be seen on their own site.

about the available user groups etc but doesnt tell what an user group is..)

SIG - special interest group

A user group is a group of people who use a product and form an organization
in which they share information with each other about that product. When
use of personal computers began to grow 15 to 20 years ago, many people
joined such groups to learn about the PC, share tips and so forth about
their experiences. Many of these groups became quite large and influential
and were listened to by industry.

So within a PC users group, there might be a sub organization of people
particularly interested in an application such as Excel.
