Visual Basic _ Question about findings the right study material?

Question

Hey does anyone know of a great book/CD-ROM, etc for learn some novice to advanced Visual Basic study. I think I have about graduated the beginner stage. The main thing I need to do with Visual Basic is use it in conjunction with Office applications (2003 to be precise). Mostly MS Access, Excel and PowerPoint. But I want to learn more, I just need relative study material for which I can put into practice, so that leaves me with the need to work on and access database, use powerpoint for presentations, and excel too.

I get onto sites on went over VB tutorials, but they are mostly for beginners explaining objects/properties and such. And I also look at Borders and Amazon for books but then it's just a guessing game because there are so many to choose from...

any advice?

Answer 1

The "Bible" books have always provided good information for me regarding VBA (as well as other topics). For example: http://www.amazon.com/Excel-2003-Bible-John-Walkenbach/dp/0764539671 for Excel. There will be a couple of chapters that you won't need (since the books include beginning information as well as intermediate and advanced information), but it's also a good reference if you forget something.
