Question Ideas on Good VBA Reference Book?

I am looking for a really good reference book for coding in VBA. I primarily code in Access, but also write some macros in Excel. I did a search on Amazon.com and there are a ton of VBA reference books listed. Does anyone have any recommendations on a book that might be better then the rest?

My bible for Coding in Excel is 'Excel 2000 Power Programming with VBA' by John Walkenbach'. It's constantly open on my desk for quick reference. I can't find a decent Access book at the same level as that of Excel, but Beginning Access 2003 VBA' by Denise Gosnel isn't bad...

Cool

There are two books that I recommend if you're looking at getting started with VBA. The first is Access 2000 Fundamentals (Visual Basic for Application) written by Evan Callahan. The second book I can't remember the entire title, but it's VBA in 15 days. I've seen it at Barnes and Noble.

Ideas on Good VBA Reference Book

There are two books that I have found helpful. One is the Microsoft Excel 2000 Visual Basic for applications by Reed Jacobson, and the other is " Excel Porgramming Weekend Crash Course", but Peter G. Aitken
