I am not a professional programmer, just someone who needs to use Excel VBA
to solve problems from time to time. Sometimes I wish I had a bit more basic
programming knowledge, e.g. basic sorting algorithms, recursions. Can
someone recommend some good books for me to read (or sites to browse)? It
would be perfect if all the examples are given in Excel VBA but this is not
a must.

TIA

Here is another possibility...

http://www.amazon.com/Mastering-VBA-...6737074&sr=8-2

It covers XL2003 and earlier, but the concepts you learn should work in
XL2007 as well.
