50 excel WBs

[2bhonest]

I recently purchased a copy of VBA Macros for MS Excel 2003. I note that on p7 there is a link to download the code files, ........getcode.html......... but I cannot get this to work.
Can someone please help?
Much appreciated!

You haven't explained what problem you are having... and it would help if you could post the link you are trying (I will delete it after you post, since that is privileged information).

On page 7 of the aforementioned book the last paragraph provides a link
http://www.mrexcel.com/getcode.html as the location to download........ "a set of 50 Excel workbooks demonstrating the concepts in the this book,......plus 25 bonus macros. When I last tried this link earlier this morning I was led "around the houses", however, the link now works and I have been able to download the file. It seems I may not have entered the address correctly, in addition, I was led to believe that the code was only available if the book was purchased from the website. Thanks for your attention! The book is the best I have seen on this subject and I'm eager to learn all it has to offer.

I'm having the same problem with opening this file. I downloaded the file from It downloads well but everytime I try to open it. The file asks me to choose a language when I choose "English" the file begins reinstalling. After it reinstalls the file closes. I can't get it to work. Please help I really want use the workbooks in this file. What am I doing wrong?

I am trying out the steps as I write this:
1) Download VBABook.exe to your computer
2) Run the vbabook.exe. Choose English
3) The installer proposes an installation directory of C:\Program Files\MrExcel
4) Click Continue
5) A message says the files installed successfully

If all of the above works fine, then do this:
Then, do Start - All Program - MrExcel - Project Files.
An HTML file opens up with links to each chapter's file.
At the bottom of that HTML are the 25 Hans files.

If something isn't working with steps 1 through 5, let me know which step.

Anyway to do without down loading an exe? At work we are locked down in Vista and I can't load exe files.

OK. Send a note to excelstore @ mrexcel.com. I can see if I can e-mail the workbooks to you.
