Macro in excel

Excel Workbook

.xlsx

The default Excel file format. Cannot store VBA macro code or Microsoft Excel 4.0 macro sheets (.xlm files in Excel 4.0).

Excel Macro-Enabled Workbook

.xlsm

Uses the same basic XML format as the Excel Workbook, but can store VBA macro code. Users saving an Excel workbook that has VBA code or Excel 4.0 macro sheets (.xlm files in Excel 4.0) are prompted to use this file format.

Excel Template

.xltx

The default file format for an Excel template. Cannot store VBA macro code or Excel 4.0 macro sheets (.xlm files in Excel 4.0).

Excel Macro-Enabled Template

.xltm

Can contain a VBAProject part or Excel 4.0 macro sheets (.xlm files in Excel 4.0). Workbooks created from this template inherit the VBAProject part or Excel 4.0 macro sheets that exist in the template.

Excel Add-In

.xlam

A supplemental program that runs additional code. Excel add-ins use the Open XML file format to store data, and they support using VBA projects and Excel 4.0 macro sheets.

Use macro editor. And modify it.
You need to create a new Excel Based VB Program, then install Visual Basic 6.0 or higher version and use the MS Excel ActiveX control.

well follow the steps below to get your job done:

To create an option button in Microsoft Office Excel 2007, make sure that you add Option Button (form control) to the Quick Access Toolbar. To do this, follow these steps:

1. Click the Microsoft Office Button, and then click Excel Options.
2. Click the Customize category, select All Commands in the Choose commands from list, select Option Button (form control), and then click OK.

To create an option button and to assign a macro to it, follow these steps:

1. In Excel 2003 and in earlier versions of Excel, click Option Button on the Forms toolbar, and then draw the outline of the button on the sheet.
   
   In Excel 2007, click Option Button (form control) on the Quick Access Toolbar, and then draw the outline of the button on the sheet.
2. Select any cell in the worksheet.
3. In versions of Excel that are for Microsoft Windows, right-click the option button, and then click Assign Macro.
   
   In versions of Excel that are for Macintosh, press COMMAND while you click or press CTRL while you click, depending on your operating system version. Then, click Assign Macro.
4. In the Assign Macro dialog box, click the name of the macro that you want to assign to the option button, and then click OK.

When you click the option button, the macro will run.


good luck ...:-)

is a hiden process of Excel, is like program or several steps ( like moving cursor, make calculations, moving files, is no limit what can do, but normaly is not visible, is low level programing is always used for virus spreeding.

Creating Macros does not require programming. The only suggestion I would make if you are new to macros - break down your task to very small sub tasks, in order to avoid confusion.

There are a couple of types of spreadsheet - Depending on the size of the data you are working with - filter may the quickest option or Query report.

Your worksheet will contain all your data i.e. Customer, contact no, outstaning actions and due date - You can create a filter aon this set criteria on the due data - as less than or equal to todays date - which will only display your outstanding actions required by today or earlier.

Another option if you have installed MS Query, is to create a seperate report - again using the criteria of due date being less than or equal to today.

Producing this from your existing data is much easier than trying to re-create your data - But I can send you how I would create this sheet if the above explanation is not easy to follow - If you let me have your email address.

Hi motilal

Follow these steps to create multiple macros

Click the Microsoft Office Button , and then click Excel Options.
In the Popular category, under Top options for working with Excel, select the Show Developer tab in the Ribbon check box, and then click OK.

Note The Ribbon is a component of the Microsoft Office Fluent user interface.
To set the security level temporarily to enable all macros, do the following: On the Developer tab, in the Code group, click Macro Security.


In the Macros Settings category, under Macro Settings, click Enable all macros (not recommended, potentially dangerous code can run), and then click OK.

Note To help prevent potentially dangerous code from running, we recommend that you return to any of the settings that disable all macros after you finish working with macros.
Open the workbook that contains the module that you want to copy and the workbook that you want to copy the module to.
On the Developer tab, in the Code group, click Visual Basic.
On the View menu, click Project Explorer .
Drag the module that you want to copy to the destination workbook.

I can make out that
You are speaking about creating a macro to take data from one constant updated cell and to put that data into another cell or form sheet.
You will need to get precise help from a programmer on this.
If you want to see a little on macros just open a sheet and checkout the help section on macros.
Some macros can take many hours to write and test.Some make take months.
hope this helps.

Macros are a timesaving feature that allow you to record a sequence of actions that you do in excel, and replay them back later.

You give each macro a name, and you can invoke them later, and Excel will "do" whatever it is you did when you recorded the macro.

To record a new macro:
1) Open Excel
2) Go to Tools->Macros->Record New Macro...
3) Type in a name for your macro and hit OK

(A new toolbar will popup with a "stop" button on it. Excel is now recording everything you do)

4) Do something, like, for example, select some cells and make them bold.
5) Click the "stop" button.


Now your macro has been recorded! You can play it back later by:

1) Open Excel
2) Go to Tools->Macros->Macros...
3) Select your macro from the list
4) Click "Run"

The actions you performed earlier will now be executed.

Macros are written in Visual Basic for Applications, or "VBA". It is a programming language which uses the Excel Object Model to perform various actions. You can edit and create custom macros by writing the code manually in VBA. To do this:

1) Open Excel
2) Go to tools->macros->macros...
3) Select an already existing macro
4) Click "Edit"

(The visual basic editor will open, showing you the code for your macro)

At this point you are writing a program in Visual Basic. To learn how to edit macros, you need to learn visual basic, as well as the specific quirks related to excel macros in visual basic.

Recording a macro, and then using it as a template while you edit it is a common trick for making macros manually more quickly.

If you are not familiar with VB, I would not suggest attempting to edit your macros in any but the most simplest of ways. If you're brave, you can try to learn about editing macros in VBA here:

Instead of me teaching u. i would suggest u learn it by following the simple steps.

1. Click Tools > Macros > record
2. do some common operation like copying data, creating graphs, etc.
3. press alt+F11 to go to vb editor, to see ur macro recorded
4. study it ... u will learn easily

have a nice day
