Writing Excel Macros With VBA 2nd Edition
Newly updated for Excel 2002, Writing Excel Macros with VBA,
2nd Edition provides Excel power-users, as well as
programmers who are unfamiliar with the Excel object model,
with a solid introduction to writing Visual Basic for
Applications (VBA) macros and programs for Excel. In
particular, the book focuses on:
The Visual
Basic Editor and the Excel VBA programming
environment. Excel features a complete, state-of-the-art
integrated development environment for writing, running,
testing, and debugging VBA macros.
The VBA programming language, the same programming language
used by the other applications in Microsoft Office XP and
2000, as well as by the retail editions of Visual Basic 6.0.
The Excel object model, including new objects and new
members of existing objects in Excel 2002. Excel exposes
nearly all of its functionality through its object model,
which is the means by which Excel can be controlled
programmatically using VBA. While the Excel object model,
with 192 objects, is the second largest among the Office
applications, you need to be familiar with only a handful of
objects to write effective macros. Writing Excel Macros
focuses on these essential objects, but includes a
discussion of many more objects as well.
Writing Excel Macros with VBA, 2nd Edition is written in a
terse, no-nonsense manner that is characteristic of Steven
Roman's straightforward, practical approach. Instead of a
slow-paced tutorial with a lot of handholding, Roman offers
the essential information about Excel VBA that you must
master to write macros effectively. This tutorial is
reinforced by interesting and useful examples that solve
common problems you're sure to have encountered.
Writing Excel Macros with VBA, 2nd Edition is the book you
need to delve into the basics of Excel VBA programming,
enabling you to increase your power and productivity.
