After developing my first database , I have realized the importance of VBA.
Any suggestions on where to start learning VBA? website,book, or course.

thanks
 
There are books on the subject by Ken Getz and Rebecca Riordan. I
thoroughly endorse Getz. I haven't read the Riordan book but believe
it is probably of high quality. There are lots of books that have VBA
in the title but they're usually tied to a particular platform. The
fundamental aspects of the language don't change but the individual
platform object models change over time.

Access 2003 VBA, by Cardoza, Hennig, Seach, & Stein, published by Wrox.

Access 2007 VBA, by Hennig, Cooper, Griffith, & Stein, published by Wrox.

Because much of what we do in VBA is to automate database functions that
would be done manually, these books give explanation of the manual
operations before the description of automating them. That is a welcome
change from books that assume some level (often very advanced level) of
knowledge of the manual operation.

I finished 'Access 2003 Programming in 24 hours' (part of the sams
series) and thought it was a good introduction to the subject, but I
highly stress that is was a good INTRODUCTION as most of the sams
books seem to be.

Thanks for the input, I have very limited experience with VBA, I used some
macros with excel but not enough to fix the code if there was a problem. So
I basically need to start from scratch.
