Many Microsoft Word users and VBA programmers don't realize the extensive opportunities that exist when Word's Object Model is accessed using Visual Basic for Applications (VBA), which replaced WordBasic in conjunction with the release of Word 97. By creating what is commonly called a "Word Macro" you can automate many features available in Word. ...
When using software products with graphical interfaces, we frequently focus so much on the details of how to use the interface that we forget about the more general concepts that allow us to understand and put the software to effective use. This is particularly true of a powerful database product like Microsoft Access. Novice, and sometimes even ...
Millions of programmers are learning Visual Basic .NET, Microsoft's newest version of the Visual Basic language for productively developing applications. In that spirit of productivity, you don't always have the time or the ability to go back to your shelf of reference books to find the bit of information you need. Your answer is the VB.NET ...
Intended for graduate courses or for independent study, this book presents the basic theory of fields. The first part begins with a discussion of polynomials over a ring, the division algorithm, irreducibility, field extensions, and embeddings. The second part is devoted to Galois theory. The third part of the book treats the theory of binomials. ...
The Win32 API, or Application Programming Interface, is of immense use in extending the power of Visual Basic. The Win32 API is the collection of functions and subroutines that provides programmatic access to the features of the operating system. It allows Visual Basic programmers far greater access to the inner workings of the Windows operating ...
Intended for a one-term course in discrete mathematics, to prepare freshmen and sophomores for further work in computer science as well as mathematics. Sets, proof techniques, logic, combinatorics, and graph theory are covered in concise form. All topics are motivated by concrete examples, often emphasizing the interplay between computer science ...
This no-nonsense book delves into the core aspects of VBA programming, enabling users to increase their productivity and power over Microsoft Word. It takes the reader step-by-step through writing VBA macros and programs, illustrating how to generate tables of a particular format, manage shortcut keys, create FAX cover sheets, and reformat ...
Geared toward upper-level undergraduates and graduate students, this elementary introduction to classical umbral calculus explores Sheffer sequences and operators and their adjoints, with numerous examples of associated and other sequences. Also discusses the connection constants problem and duplication formulas, the Lagrange inversion formula, ...
This text deals with object-oriented programming and how it is implemented in Microsoft Visual Basic. Accordingly, the book has two separate, though intertwined, goals: to describe the general concepts of object-orientation, and to describe how to do object-oriented programming in Visual Basic. Readers are assumed to have a familiarity with Visual ...
The Mathematics of Finance has become a hot topic ever since the discovery of the Black-Scholes option pricing formulas in 1973. Unfortunately, there are very few undergraduate textbooks in this area. This book is specifically written for advanced undergraduate or beginning graduate students in mathematics, finance or economics. With the exception ...
In response to the extensive changes to Visual Basic and the newness of the .NET platform, this guide is aimed at professional developers - those deeply experienced in Visual Basic and those adding VB .NET to their list of mastered languages. It documents, using practical examples, how language elements work as well as alternative approaches, ...

Written for those who are not computer or electrical engineers, this text is for those who want enough information to make intelligent buying or upgrading decisions, maximize their productivity, and become less dependant on others for help. It provides a thorough but concise description of the entire IBM-type PC, including its subsystems, ...
This book is intended to be a thorough introduction to the subject of order and lattices and can be used for a course at the graduate or advanced undergraduate level or for independent study. Prerequisites consist mostly of a bit of mathematical maturity, such as that provided by a basic undergraduate course in abstract algebra.
This book is an introduction to information and coding theory at the graduate or advanced undergraduate level. It assumes a basic knowledge of probability and modern algebra, but is otherwise self- contained. The intent is to describe as clearly as possible the fundamental issues involved in these subjects, rather than covering all aspects in an ...
