Excel's macro recorder can automate simple tasks, but it has limits. Where the recorder stops, VBA takes over, letting you automate almost anything you do in Excel. This 90-minute Excel VBA basics training shows how to move beyond recorded macros, using Excel 2010 to 2016.
You'll write a simple macro from scratch in VBA, learn what variables are and how to use them, use loops to create efficient, time-saving code, and apply logic to procedures with the IF statement.
The session also shows how this event-driven programming language can control user interface features such as menus and toolbars, custom user forms and dialog boxes.
WHY SHOULD YOU ATTEND?
Once you've mastered Excel's basics, VBA lets you use its more dynamic features and save time for yourself and your customers by automating Excel-based tasks and processes.
This session suits executives, executive assistants, accountants, CPAs, bookkeepers, finance professionals, business analysts, administrators, office managers, attorneys and HR professionals.
