What is my best book resource for Excel VB editor and formulas. I have some
complicated things I want to accomplish, but I don't have the knowledge. I
don't know how to write programming. I bought Visual Basic.NET all in one
desk reference for Dummies. I don't think this is what I really needed.

One example of what I want to accomplish - insert information from one
worksheet to another automatically to form a report and insert rows when more
information is available or delete rows automatically when lookup inserts "0".

HELP!!
