I would like to learn VBA from the ground up, and i am not a programmer.

Are there any really beginner books, that are both throrough and logically
written for the absolute beginner?

How about website tutorials that assume the person KNOWS NOTHING>lol....and
will go step by step through what you need to know.

If this question would be more logically asked by saying that i would llike
to know how to write VBA to work with specific apps, then I want to use it
for Office 2003/Access,Word/OL/Excel etc

thanks for any help on this.

For most purposes, VBA and VB are the same -- and most bookshops have
beginners guides to VB. Frequently remaindered, now that VB is obsolete.
