4.0 out of 5 stars Detailed and practical, 5 Jan 2007
By J. A. Johnson (Rickmansworth, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I recommend this book to anyone needing to extend Excel and for whom VBA is insufficient. The subject is comprehensively covered and properly explained so that you can implement code for yourself in confidence, knowing that all aspects and issues are covered.

I have been very pleased to find that extending Excel using the C API is very practical, but that is largely only because this book draws together all information needed - it's difficult and time-consuming to find all of this information elsewhere.

The reason I didn't award 5 stars is that the code examples on the CD don't compile without errors (at least in VS 8).
