There are also some good step by step books with tutorial CD's on both Excel
and VB for Excel.

~ Theo:
~
~ I have been doing some looking around for this kind of program.
~
~ Both matlab and mathematica are difficult to learn, expensive,
~ and require
~ additional modules to be used effectively. The modules are also
~ expensive.
~ Maple is a program that apparently has a lot of power and is
~ less expensive
~ than matlab and mathematica. I have not been able to get much
~ information on
~ Maple in terms of ease of use and ease of learning..
~
~ There is a newsgroup for Maple. I took a look and it seems that
~ people have
~ similar problems with the Maple language as users have with
~ other languages.
~
~ My Excel teacher urged me to use Excel and VBA and VB first, as
~ it may meet
~ most of my needs.
~
~ If you find out anything about Maple, please post it or e-mail me direct.
~
~ By the way if by "3D or 4 D Metastock" you mean charts, Excel
~ has an easy
~ to use and powerful charting capability.
~
~ There are good books available on Excel. I recently came across
~ "Microsoft
~ Excel 2000 Bible" by John Walkenbach, it is readable and complete.
~ Walkenbach has written several books on Excel, so go to a bookstore or
~ library and look at the different titles.
