VBA Coding Contest

Put your VBA coding skill to use, and win valuable prizes: Office Palooza Coding Contest.

OfficePalooza is a two-week event (April 20 - May 1, 2009) that is open to just about everyone around the world.

When you think you've solved a challenge, follow the instructions on the challenge page and send in your solution. It's that simple.
