Synopsis

VBA For Dummies is a real card–carrying Dummies title with its fresh, conversational and irreverent style, yet it still covers VBA programming with real depth and accuracy.

Then you jump right into the practical programming covering topics such as: VBA development environment; Visual Basic Editor; Meat and potatoes coding techniques; Database programming with VBA; Detailed Microsoft Office–specific tips and tricks; and Coverage of non–Microsoft VBA applications, including CorelDraw and Word Perfect.
