General: Reverse Engineering

I've been beating my head against a solid wall for a bit over a week now trying to reverse engineer a complex excel spreadsheet someone created. I suppose it wouldn't be so hard if I actually knew something about VBA or macro coding for excel but I don't and that's all there is to that. However, there is some light at the end of the tunnel. I've succeeded in adding the new functionality that I wanted into the project and that's a good thing. On the other hand I seem to have broken some things that worked before so *shrug* what are you going to do. I think my head is almost numb enough that I don't care any more but needless to say building on top of someone elses work (that isn't documented very well) is probably as difficult as trying to do it all yourself from scratch.
