VBA Textbooks

Can anyone recommend a good beginner's textbook for learning VBA? I'm
teaching a VBA course and just want to know some good ones to evaluate, since
there seems to be a bunch of them (and the customer reviews on amazon are
mixed on just about every book!).

It is for a beginners course, 3 days (ie, a corporate training, not
university-type of course). The focus of the course is Access with some
Excel added in, no Word or PP at this time.

Thanks a lot for any suggestions!

Mike,

If you are focusing more on VBA basics itself, here is one suggestion -
although it is an old book (for Office 2000), the fundamentals remain the
same today. Describes the VBA IDE with all options and windows very well for
beginners.

MS Office 2000 VBA Fundamentals by David Boctor - MS Press.

You will only get it used now - probably out of print.
