how do you use macros?

RE: excel

Hi Camilla,
Thank you for your question;
In answer; A macro is a series of instructions that enables Excel to perform commands or actions for you. They are useful for complex or repetitive tasks that you perform regularly. Macros do not necessarily involve programming. The easiest way to create a macro is to have Excel record your actions then to store those actions as a macro. Actions can be any combination of mouse movements and click and keyboard strikes. Macros are very flexible and can be played back or modified at any time. To record a macro you would go to the main menu, choose Tools>Macro>Record New Macro ... give you Macro a meaningful name (no spaces) and then record your actions. Stop recording by pressing the Stop Recording button then follow the steps Tools>Macro>Macros find the name you gave and click Run. I hope that has helped Pete

Excel tip:

Change Excel's default font

You can change the default font and font size for all spreadsheets created in Excel by:

1. Going to Tools on the menu bar.
2. Select Options, then General.
3. Next to Standard Font you can change the font and font size.
4. Click OK.

Each new file you start from this point onward should use the font and font size you have selected.
