How to code in Excel

RE: coding

Hi Aidan,

Thank you for the forum question.

You have a lot of options.

Probably the most used coding language in Excel is VBA, but you can also code in TypeScript which is a superset of JavaScript, SQL, DAX, and PowerQueryM.

VBA codes can be written in the visual basic editor.

In PowerPivot data modelling you use DAX and SQL and you use PowerQueryM if you use the Power Query tool in Excel.

TypeScript is to write office scripts.

How to code? was your question. Well you will need to learn how to, but it is very rewarding. Everything can be fully automated and a lot of time spent in Excel can be reduced to zero time.

Kind regards

Excel tip:

Hiding Formulae in the Formula Bar

It is possible to protect the contents of a cell reference(s) from amendment by applying cell protection. The contents of the cell reference can also be stopped from displaying in the formula bar.

Step 1: Select Format > Cells > Protection.

Step 2: Tick Hidden option. Ensure Locked is ticked

Step 3: Select Tools > Protection > Protect Sheet

(Ensure "Protect worksheet and contents of locked cells" is ticked)
