VBA Books

[DavidRS]

I am looking at getting a book or two about VBA programming so I can really let rip in my databases. One thing - is Access VBA the same as Excel VBA?

The wrox press books are pretty good, or the nutshell ones.

VBA should be the same, although it has changed in different versions of office.

is Access VBA the same as Excel VBA?

In a way. They are both VBA - same functions, keywords, variable types, etc. - but a lot of properties and methods are included to fit the specific application's object model i.e. in Excel you use Application.DisplayAlerts = False to turn off warnings and DoCmd.SetWarnings False with Access. Similarly, predefined constants are mostly different between the two applications.

I agree on the Wrox Press and the VB & VBA in a Nutshell books.
