Crash Course

Nice book if you need a crash course. Format was easy to understand, and code examples that work to give a better handle on your project.

Great for starters

I was an absolute novice to vba when i got the book. It's good with the basics, but after a while you will definitely need a book to complement this one.

Excellent excel programing book

Peter Aitken is on the mark again!

Peter Aitken has written many Microsoft books that I have read over the years so I was more interested in this book because Peter wrote it and it does cover the new Excel 2003 release as well as previous versions of Excel to make it appropriate for someone (like me) who is still working on Excel 2000! I highly recommend this book to anyone who needs a quick tutorial guide to using the basics and not-so-basics of Excel. Peter writes in an easy to understand style that makes it enjoyable.
