VBA Book

[Ken G.]

I'd like to learn a bit more (a lot more) about VBA for Excel. I've heard
that "VB & VBA in a Nutshell" by Paul Lomax is good, but there are so many
books on the subject, can anyone recommend a good entry level book.

Power Programming by John Walkenbach is a good resource.

Interesting pointer. But paging through HTML can be tedious.

Is there a pdf version or other printable format of the same
reference?

[Dave Patrick]

There is.

Actually, I asked for a print-able reference, not a print-ed
reference. I would prefer not to pay money -- even $18 --
for something that is available for free in another format.

It would probably cost you more in ink cartridge and paper costs to print it
on your own printer. (over 900 pages)

Good point! I am used to printing on someone else's dime ;-).

But really, I am interested in a pdf file because it is
easier (for me) to use. I can print parts of the document
over time, and I can search it and flip around from section
to section more easily.

Anyway, this was not intended to turn into a discussion of
my motivations. I just wondered if there is a pdf version
around somewhere. I gather from your responses that your
answer is "not that I know of".

You might check with some of the sellers. When you buy it new it comes with
a CD-Rom
