Free Mastering VBA for Microsoft Office 2013
I've been an application developer with Microsoft Access and VBA for over 16 years and I still love reading tech books about Office VBA because there's always something new to learn. The first part of this book is basic, but necessarily so. At my level of experience, I expect that in tech books. But if you're new to Office VBA, then this should be reassuring. The author will help you get started and explain the building blocks that are needed for the more complex topics.
When purchasing a tech book, I like to flip it open to the half-way point to see how complicated it is. If that chapter is something I think I could learn from (instead of author myself), then I know the book is going to be worth the money for me. I flipped this book open half-way and found a chapter on Creating and Using Classes. This is, in my opinion, an advanced topic. In 16 years, I've used other developers' classes and on a couple of occasions, built my own. But I realized immediately that this was a chapter I wanted to read.
Further on in the book were the topics I was really looking for: Office Automation. I'm pretty strong with Excel and Outlook, but I really needed a reference for automating Word in VBA. I'm just getting started in that section, but it looks like it's just what I needed. The section on Excel looks good too and when I'm done with this book, my workmate said he wants to read the Excel chapters.
One last thing I always look for is a good explanation of debugging. In specific, I look to see if the author mentions the "Immediate Window". As a developer, this is where I spend about 1/4 of my time, checking code as it runs, verifying syntax and manipulating the application using commands.
