 Key pieces missing July 11, 2008
William R. Wiltschko (Monterey, CA USA)
I book this WROX book sight unseen, but after having read these reviews and owning many other WROX books. The immediate trigger for buying was having some of my Excel 2003 macros stop working in Excel 2007 due to the change in color scheme. This book is silent on the new color scheme. On the other hand, "Excel 2007 Power Programming with VBA (Mr. Spreadsheet's Bookshelf)" deals with this issue in depth, so I bought this reference also, and would recommend it over the WROX book. Mr Spreadsheet's book has saved my bacon.
The WROX book doesn't handle the translation of Excel 2003 "lists" to Excel 2007 "tables" completely. I would have liked more info on Structured References, which have the potential to make "tables" actually useful.

I have not finished this book yet but John Green's last book about Excel put me in front of others in development. I am sure; this book will do the same because the same the same author has helped in writing this book. I keep it handy when I need it.
For good or bad the authors went through some trouble to put the basics in front of the book which makes it everyone's book but does not help me and make the book 60 pages fatter.

The brief treatment of VBA syntax and the power of VBA make this text for intermediate users and above in my opinion.
Its broad scope, covering command bars, class modules, ribbonx, open XML and much more make it a source to be mined over time. As a reader's knowledge increases, he is likely to find first one and then another Excel feature that can be utilized using techniques described in this text.
