An essential guide for VBA for Excel programming
I think that this is the book that Microsoft should have written themselves. I feel that it very much needs upgrading for the differences in Excel '97, but it is still useful. I wish the descriptions went into more detail; it sometimes seems to be a mere rehash of the Excel online Help. Despite the above, I feel that this book is essential for anyone attempting to write code for Excel, especially as Microsoft seems to think that they don't need to include "real" books with their software anymore.

Code doesn't work
I have some knowledge of VB and wanted to get a look at VBA, so a friend loaned me this book. It seems to be very complete and well organized, but so far the code examples I have tried don't work. This may be because I am using Excel 2000 and the book was written in 1996. I have been able to make the code samples work by just fiddling with the code until it runs. However, this is a frustrating experience for someone who likes to learn hands on, and would probably be a disaster for a brand-new programmer.

Useless, useless, useless and what happened to English...
I had some elementary knowledge about VB beforehand and I borrowed this book from a friend in order to look up certain things. I found it to be useless and hard to read. It might be just me, but if I wanted to buy a book on VB and Excel I would stay very far, far, far and AWAY from this one.
