for any of you that care to have it... i have this book in PDF now..
Financial Modeling by Simon Benninga 3rd edition..

i'm going to start reading it ... i'll post a bit of a review as i go.

i read in a review on the book on Amazon to read the Chapter 6 first so thats what i'm going to do.. its intro to VB for apps
 
I've actually read this book and it's probably one of the best books on the book shelves but you need to have slightly beyond a working knowledge of Excel and Visual Basic to really benefit from the book. I would suggest reading a book on both topics before tackling this book, or perhaps even taking a class at the local college if the OP felt it necessary.

All things considered, EViews absolutely blows Excel away when it comes to financial modeling capabilities. I used that program in an Econometrics class and ended up buying the program -- it's that good!
