I would not be even a fraction of the VBA programmer I am without standing on the shoulders of giants. One such was Chip Pearson. Unfortunately, he died in a car accident in April 2018. The programming world and especially the Excel world, is very much poorer for him not being there. All communications I had with him showed him to be polite, thoughtful, very experienced, and willing to share that with others. RIP Chip.

My brother Dave has been invaluable in proofing and pointing out, amongst amongst other things, my extreme inconsistency and difficulties with punctuation. Thanks bro.

My talented other half, Lisa, who wrote most of the code for the original CodeCode excel add in. She has had over 1000 downloads of it over 7 years.

The internet. Thank you to the gazillions of people who have posted code and other items there for people like me to download, copy, and abuse.

More specifically: Thank you to the Code Cage web site and the people on it. It’s not there any more and I personally think that’s a real pity. Thank you to Eileens lounge and the experts there and their many many years of experience and not least their humour.

UPDATE:

Directly after his death, Chips site was pulled in its’ entirety. It’s back up now. Thank you to those who are responsible
