How to set up macros

RE: Macros

Hi Ahmed

Hope you enjoyed your weekend!

Great to meet you on Friday last on my course.

How to set up Macros?
As a reminder, you need to think about what you would like to achieve with the macro first. Then turn on the Macro Recorder, through Tools menu, Record New Macro.

1) Type a name for the macro.
2) Decide if you require a shortcut key.
3) Decide if you want this Macro to be available in This Workbook or New Workbook. If you require the macro to be available in all workbooks choose Personal Macro Workbook.
4) Type a description for the Macro, then click OK.
5) With the Macro Toolbar displayed on your screen the actions you now take with the mouse and keyboard will be recorded.
6) Once you have finished recording, choose Stop Recording on the Macro Toolbar.
7) To play back your macro, either press the shortcut key set up earlier or go to Tools menu, Macros, choose your Macro and click run.

Hope this helps Ahmed
Take care
Sandy

Excel tip:

Colouring cells containing formulas

Cells in a worksheet can contain values or they can contain formulas. You may wish to identify all the cells in your worksheet that contain formulas by colouring those cells.

Follow these steps:
1. Choose Edit > Go To menu, or press either F5 or Ctrl+G. Excel displays the Go To dialog box.
2. Click Special. Excel displays the Go To Special dialog box.
3. Select the Formulas radio button option.
4. Select OK.

At this point, every formula cell in the worksheet is selected, and those cells can be coloured formatted as desired.
