Well John Walkenbach does Excel VBA Programming For Dummies ISBN:
0-7645-7412-4 which is probably the best starter book. Once mastered, look
at John Green's VBA 2002 Programmers Reference Manual (avoid the 2003
version).

Thanks, Bob. You are correct in your assessment. However, I'd still like
to
read a book that might contain the subject in a structured manner. I'll
explain: in the 1-2-3 days, I had a great command of the Lotus macro
language, from the syntax chapter in Lotus handbooks. Is there a similar
book on Excel programming?

You have specific needs rather than just a learning situation, so I
would
suggest that you record basic macros, try and amend, and post detailed
questions (code and data as well) when you have a problem to this NG.
You
will soon improve, especially if you so some research of your own (using
Help and the object browser).

I'd like to get a recommended source of info (books,CD's, etc.) where
I
can
learn how to program macros in Excel. I know the embedded recording
method,
but I need to program spcial activities i.e. in a given table, move
the
cursor until a certain value is found and if so delete the row.
Basically, I
need to know the language syntax, the method of inserting and saving
the
macro, its availability for other spreadsheets, etc.
Thanks
