I have at least 4 of your (Bill's) books. I recently purchased VBA and Macros for MS office Excel 2007... I have the previous issue of the book and wanted to update my knowledge of 2007...

The book is of course excellent... the problem I have is with the "free" online access through Safari https://ssl.safaribooksonline.com/safarienabled it seems that it is not free through their website rather than a promotion to subscribe to their service.

Where their service may be nice -however I do not have the resources to pay them a monthly service fee... I humbly request that in the future -that the code in the book be offered through an attached DVD or CD data disk. (The previous edition did in fact offer a coupon for a data disk).

Right now I have to copy the code manually -which isn't as nice as some of the other books out there. I believe that removing this promotion from Safari will be in the best interest of the author and the customers.

Thanks,

Eric
 

Excel Facts

Spell Check in Excel
Press F7 to start spell check in Excel. Be careful, by default, Excel does not check Capitalized Werds (whoops)
In my copy of the book, the Code Files are available for download. Have another look at page 1 of the 'Contents'.
 
Oh yes, page 5 -Thanks!

Um.... now dealing with WinRAR which has the worst interface in the history of computing AND is not a free program
