This is a great book for learning the really fancy features of Microsoft Excel. Many other books are just a reference for this sort of material, or they barely touch on some of the programming features. This book goes into great detail about VBA (Visual Basic Editor), which is the reason I bought this book. From there it goes on to talk about how to customize your spreadsheets with toolbars and menus. This is an excellent book on anyone who wants to master Excel.

I am using this book to teach advanced course in computer useage in a University Business department. It is very comprehensive, has good coverage and useful examples. Its best quality is in choosing: what to include and what to exclude. The most common mistake people make in writing such books is to try to include everything. In this book you learn enough to do something useful and are able to figure out the rest for yourself. And the best part: in not too many pages. To the autor: thank you.

ps. The only drawback is its name, does the "dummies" refer to the students or the teacher?

This book has been a great help in making me very proficient in Excel 2000 VBA. This book has given me the knowledge to develop some very powerful tools which have helped me dramatically in my business. This book is well written and uses a logical process to describe VBA's features.

This came just like it was explained and has been so helpful. My husband is an engineer and uses this regularly.
