RE: How do I create a macro?

Hi Rebecca,

Thank you for using the forum,

To create a macro, simpy go in to the Tools menu and choose Macro > Record a new Macro. At this point you can give the Macro a meaningful name and then press OK. From that point onward the computer records what you do with your cursor so if you change the cell to bold, or font colour etc then press stop recording.

To then run the macro you use the same menu Tool>Macro>Macros and click the Macro you just created.

Macros are designed to automate long winded tasks and cut down the amount of keystrokes required.

Have a go ! Good luck

Tracy

Excel tip:

Freeze Rows and Columns to keep lables displayed

You can freeze rows and columns in your worksheet so they don't move.

This allows you to keep row and column labels displayed on your screen as you move through a large worksheet.

Click below and/or to the right of the cell(s) you want to freeze. (NB. Excel freezes ALL the rows above and ALL the columns to left of the selected cell)

Click on the 'Windows' menu and selct 'Freeze Panes'.

Lines appear in your worksheet. The required rows and columns are frozen and remain on your screen as you move through your worksheet.

To unfreeze rows and columns, click on 'Window' menu and select 'Unfreeze Panes'.
