Couple of options: - First, Andy's right - make sure all your Excel help files are loaded during install. - Second, msdn.microsoft.com - search for something linke "excel vba" or "excel object model", and that should get you to the online doc's, where there's lots of examples also. You'll probably have to register, first. Its free, and I'd recommend it for the resources anyway. - and/or Third, browse the object model from within Excel itself. Create a new macro, which will bring up the Visual Basic for Applications interface. Hit F2 to bring up the object browser. This will show you the entire object model in a heirachical form, and just hit highlight a object/method and hit F1 to bring up the help on it.

The Excel Help files. When you (re)install Office, make sure you go to the advanced options and ask for all the VBA documentation. If you then go into Excel' macro editor you get full reference to the object model. Likewise for the other Office apps. If you do a 'typical' Office install you won't have the docs.
