    Bit of a wide question isn't it? I assume that you mean BI. What specifically are you after?

    Lol Bob man of many words as usual, i have to admit i dont even know what desktop intelligence is.....i don't have any!

    Surely the Op means VB rather than VBA, and if the OP is as experienced as they say surely its a very simple transition?

    I think that he means Business Intelligence Simon, or at leats that is how I am reading it. And in that respect, it is not VBA that is the first imperative, it is design as it can cover charting, pivots, OLAP, and all that good stuff, so you need to determine how you are going to be intelligent. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Business_intelligence

However, some psychologists prefer not to include these traits in the definition of intelligence.
