Free Introduction to VBA for Excel
I strongly recommend this book for anyone interested in learning about VBA under Excel. The book is very easy to follow. The author explains everything thoroughly in a step by step manner, in examples, and in a very easy language. The book does not need any solid programming background. I believe that any reader with little programming background would find the book to be very useful. Although the book is designed for novices, I believe it covers enough topics to cover anyone's basic needs. On the other hand, I would not suggest the book for anyone familiar with VBA under Excel and seeks to gain proficiency. The book is designed for novices. Finally, I believe that the only book aspect that requires improvement is the post-chapter exercises. I think the exercises are few in number, poor in quality, and need further development.

I'm a prof in Chemical Engineering and our department has decided to teach Excel VBA programming to our incoming freshmen. We're assuming that they have never programmed before. I looked at all the potential texts that I could find for this and this was the clear winner.
It starts assuming zero knowledge of what a program even is. This is characteristic of Chapra's books and I find it to be useful in teaching. Some might think the start is too simplistic but I believe it's appropriate and I tend to move on pretty quickly.
It's clearly written, concise, and has lots of examples and problems. It's not especially deep; as a teaching text I think you'll get through it long before the semester is over. I've found no significant errors and it works fine with Excel 2010.
If I might wax political, I'm not sure Excel VBA is the best language to start freshman off with if they have never programmed before. But, if you do, you should consider this text.
