I bought MrExcel's "VBA and Macros" and it definitely (within 3 chapters)helped me from being a Lotus 123 and BASIC person to becoming more VBA friendly, but it didn't go as in depth as I needed it to. I want a book that explains the definitions of all the objects, methods, etc. I know I can hit F1, but I like to dogear, highlight, and underline: Thats how I learned 20+ years ago. I've been to Barnes and Noble and Books A Million, but their selection is limited. Any suggestions are greattly appreciated.

How can you turn a range sideways?
Copy the range. Select a blank cell. Right-click, Paste Special, then choose Transpose.

Great References, I would like to find a complete Book about Loops, I mean: like for next inside for each and vice-versa or do inside for how to planning a loop before you type on the computer, the ( ) is full of tricks, Please. I never see a book on VBA with IPO charts, hand tracing, desk check, pseudocodes, flowcharts, finite state machine.
