You can learn a lot, just by using the Macro Recorder to do some simple tasks. Then look at the code produced

Some good books I have and use. Even though they are for older versions of Excel, they explain things quite well.
Excel 2003 Power Programming with VBA (Excel Power Programming With Vba) by John Walkenbach
Professional Excel Development by Stephen/ Bovey, Rob/ Green, John Bullen (Paperback - Feb 11, 2005)
Excel 2002 VBA: Programmers Reference by Rob Bovey, Stephen Bullen, John Green, and Robert Rosenberg (Paperback - Sep 26, 2001)

This one has good reviews, but I have not tried it myself:
Slaying Excel Dragons: A Beginners Guide to Conquering Excel's Frustrations and Making Excel Fun

Nice list - I'm putting it in my Bookmarks/Favorites!

 

[Ruddles]

I personally like the O'Reilly books - even the ones with occasional typos. I have:-
VB & VBA in a Nutshell: The Language
(http://www.amazon.co.uk/VB-VBA-Nuts...?ie=UTF8&tag=ruswesi-21&qid=1304671189&sr=1-2)
and
Writing Excel Macros with VBA
(http://www.amazon.co.uk/Writing-Exc...?ie=UTF8&tag=ruswesi-21&qid=1304671189&sr=1-3)
as well as several others.

Search Amazon for vba or excel macros. I bought a couple of books from there for a penny plus postage recently and they were in exxcellent condition.
