Need Excel & VBA books

[Excel_Noobie]

Good Morning All.

I'm trying to find a good book for beginners of VBA. So far, the favor has gone to VBA and Macros for Microsoft Office Excel 2007 by Bill Jelen, Tracy Syrstad. Does anyone have recommendations? Keep in mind that I am started from scratch with VBA coding. I'm pretty comfortable with Excel. Just need more power. I've heard that the MS Step by step was not very good.

Please help.

Thanks.
