This could be once a certain calculation is inserted or value reached, or when you perform a certain action in your spreadsheet itself (such as, for instance, pressing a custom-inserted button). For Excel data analysts, a VBA For Loop can allow you to loop through cells or perform a set number of actions once the criteria to do so are met. Loops like this aren’t unique to VBA-indeed, they’re a common feature in most programming languages, allowing a program or script to run continuously in a sequence with a start and end point. For instance, if you want a macro that repeats an action by a certain number of times, you can use a VBA For Loop. VBA is a useful programming language for new data analysts to learn as it supercharges the functionality of Excel, making it easier to perform certain tasks automatically (and repeatedly) with custom-made macro scripts. Macros are automated scripts, typically written using Visual Basic for Applications (VBA), to help you perform certain actions in Excel, such as automate a button press or perform a calculation. Ensure PERSONAL is selected and click OK.If you’re looking to automate your Excel spreadsheets, macros are a good way to do so.The personal workbook must be unhidden if you want to edit any macros saved in it. However, this file is hidden by default, so you wouldn’t know it’s there unless you unhide it. It’s saved on your computer and opens every time you open Excel. The personal workbook is a special file that stores universal macros. If it’s saved in the personal workbook, you’ll need to unhide it first.
Unhide the Personal Workbookīefore you start editing a macro, you need to think about where it’s saved. In this lesson we’ll look at how to view and edit the code for an existing macro. The best way to learn about Visual Basic is to view existing code. Using the Visual Basic language and the Visual Basic editor, you can make minor changes to your macros once you have recorded them. This lesson introduces you to the Visual Basic (also called VB or VBA) programming language-the code Excel uses to record macros. If you record a macro and later want to make changes without having to re-record it, it can be edited in the Visual Basic window.
