My group is starting to get heavily involved with Excel development (pricing models & time-series analysis implemented as add-ins), and I'm wondering if anyone has an opinion on this book:Excel Add-in Development in C/C++ : Applications in FinanceI've heard the first edition for the book is 'buggy' -- hoping someone can confirm or deny with some details. Or if an errata web page for the book exists, I'd appreciate a link.I know xlw exists on sourceforge, we're looking at that too.By the way, that book by Bovey and Bullen looks interesting, we're definitely ordering it. I've known about their Excel MVP websites for years now; plenty of good stuff there:Stephen Bullen's Excel PageRob Bovey's Excel Page

>>Excel Add-in Development in C/C++: Applications in FinanceThe book was available for download from rapidshare at no cost, but deleted by the uploader after a short period of time.

Excel Add-in Development in C/C++ is also available from the Wilmott Bookshop.

Did anyone manage to download that book??

Excel Add-in Development in C/C++ : Applications in Finance is a decent book, and yes it does have a couple of bugs but Steve Dalton has corrected hem and bunged them on a web site. If you're doing that sort of development, you need the book.I hear however that Wiley have managed to run out of this good book, but for some demented reason have loads of the scrappy Justin London book.

Here's the web site for the book, including an errata page: Excel Add-in Development in C/C++: Applications in Financebtw Duffy's 'Financial Instrument Pricing in C++', Chapter 29, has a nice summary of creating Excel Add-ins using MS Visual Studio.
