Reference problem / advice
Hi All I have a job interview on Friday with a time constrained test which can be on any aspect of VBA (practical problems) but that’s all I know. I use VBA a fair bit but outside the stuff I use on a regular basis there is a huge amount that could be covered which I know the theory of but have never used. I put this to the company and although it’s not a programming job (10%) they accept the situation but can't be any more specific (found out they haven't written the tests yet) and suggested I bring some books along (I have plenty but the time constraint is worrying me). I was wondering if anybody knew of a searchable vba code library (online or as an application) that I can lay my hands on as I have found that if I have snippets of code or examples I can usually adapt them to what I need fairly quickly as opposed to starting from scratch. Any help much appreciated.

Sandy,
http://www.mvps.org/ would be a good point to start for snippets and tips, but really if you can access online at this test then this group covers just about everything, I always find the answer on here so I would say if you are looking for a online code library then you have already found it!

Isn't the Excel Forum Searchable?
http://support.microsoft.com use the advanced search feature. -- Regards, Tom Ogilvy "SandyUK" wrote: Hi All I have a job interview on Friday with a time constrained test which can be on any aspect of VBA (practical problems) but thats all I know.

Thanks for the replies, after F1 the forum is my first port of call th only trouble is that I find it can run very slowly on occasions and am not sure what type of connection I am going to get at this test (i I get one at all). Ideally I would like an offline searchable version off the forum wit millisecond read time, intuitive search functions, fully cros referenced and available on a 1mb zip but then again I would also lik a flat in Monaco just by the swimming pool so I could watch the formul 1 each year :-) ). I am just looking for something I can bang a search into that woul come back with a slightly more comprehensive and in some cases simple example than you get with F1. An example of the sort of thing I am worried about is syntax fo InputBox over MsgBox (I use MsgBox all the time but never use InputBox) so if there was an example I could cut paste and change wha I need to achieve a quick result just to pass the test. Sounds a bit o a cheat but I would like to have a safety net to back me up if it come to it (which I hope it doesn't).
