Default Frustrated with VBA so-called help

I ran across the "xldown" feature (don't know if it's a method,
property or a kind of orange) in another thread, and tried to look it
up in John Walkenbach's book and in VBA help. John's book had one
reference cited (that wasn't very helpful), VBA help doesn't recognize
it at all. Does anyone have any suggestions on where someone can find
information on objects, properties, methods, functions, etc? I guess my
approach is different, but when I see these things, I want to know what
it is (object, property, function, method, etc.) and that the arguments
are, if it has them, and some samples of how to use them. I can find
them in the Object Model, usually, but it has no useful (to me, at
least) information. It just tells me it exists!
I usually come in here and do a search, and always find examples. But
just the code with no explanation of what it does isn't enough, I'd
like some kind of description of what it does.
Do I have to buy another book that actually lists these things with
some useful description and sample code? Is there an online reference?
Any ideas here would be greatly appreciated. It's very difficult
learning when there are no definitions for the tools!
