Learning Macros

[Guest]

Is this the right forum?

I've gotten advanced enough with customizing Word, that I need to be writing
more complex macros and managing them. I'd like to learn more about Macros
and beginning VBA.

Is there a R E A L S I M P L E book or guide that could get me
started? Thanks for your recommendations.

Wow! I can learn all that in 15 minuts! I've printed out the page you
linked, and will have macros mastered before noon.
Thank you.

I think if you truly want to learn about VBA, it will take you a little more
than 15 minutes. I took a VBA course a few years ago. It was geared towards
beginners. It involved about 35 hours of instruction and we used Visual
Basic for Applications by Dian Zak - ISBN 0-619-00020-1. This book is a few
inches thick but I would highly recommend it.
