 Very Good not for novice VBA programmers November 3, 2006

Buy this book because you want to be able to use VBA to help you at work. I wrote a program to automatically generate and send reports via email - about 500 of them - and my boss was in awe.
You CAN develop VBA custome applications where the user can't see the underlying MS Office application, i.e., Excel for example. They use your program like any stand-alone application. COOL!!!
Excellent Tool for Programmers ! November 3, 2006

In spite of being an advanced book, difficult concepts are explained clearly and in a very simple way.
You can find a lot of advices on best practices throughout the book as well as very powerful techniques that are really useful while you develop your applications.
For an advanced VBA programmer, this book is a must.
Best Excel development book to date April 26, 2006

The depth of Excel development knowledge of the authors can be readily seen a few pages into the Introduction. If you have been frequent visitors to Excel/VBA programming newsgroups like myself, you will notice immediately that all three authors are well-recognized experts in this domain, and have answered countless tricky questions on the topic of Excel/VBA. In my opinion, the particularly valuable chapters include:
- Chapter 3 on "Best Practices"
- Chapter 17 on "Optimizing VBA Performance"
- Chapter 19 on "XLLs/C API"
- Chapters 20-21 on VB6
- Chapter 22 on VB.NET/VSTO
This is such a comprehensive book that will transform your Excel development skills to the professional level. Without reservation, the authors have delivered what the book title promises.
Looking to take your Excel to the next level? BUY THIS BOOK!!!! March 10, 2006

I've been working with Excel for years...
This is by far the BEST EXCEL DEVELOPMENT BOOK I've ever seen. It paid for itself many, many times over in the theory, and code tricks I've learned from it.
BEWARE BEGINNERS....if you're unfamiliar with Excel or VBA development, this isn't the book for you...start with Excel 2003 Power Programming by John Walkenbach.
If you're looking to take your spreadsheets to the next level, BUY THIS BOOK...IT RULES
