learning vba

[Guest]

Is there any website that I can use to learn VBA and do I have to buy any
thing to use VBA inside Office

Thanks

There is nothing to buy as VBA comes with office, though you may not have
installed the help files that go with it unless you did a custom
installation. Go back and modify your installation if necessary to include
these files as they are an invaluable resource - the only one that I have.

I learned it by having problems to solve and reading the Help files. You can
learn just about everything in the help files. I also had the benefit of an
office-mate who was already pretty proficient. At first, when I was starting
out, he gave me a few programs to work on and then he would help me only when
I just couldn't get out of a jam. There were times of frustration with this
method, but it worked pretty well. You could use these forums as that
"person" to help you get out of the occasional jam.
