00:05:00 In this video tutorial, the author introduces the basics of Excel VBA programming and explains how object-oriented programming works. Later in the video, the author demonstrates how to make changes to a cell without first selecting it.
00:10:00 This video explains how to make basic modifications to Excel to create macros. First, the user opens Excel and sets up a template. Then, they go over how to enable the Developer tab on the Ribbon and how to record a macro. Finally, they show how to use the Macro Recorder to create a macro that automates the six or seven steps needed to create a report title.
00:15:00 This video tutorial explains how to create a macro that will automatically generate a report title using the Excel VBA language. The macro recorder will store the macro in a personal macro workbook so that it can be used across multiple Excel documents, and the user can choose to store the macro in a workbook or the user's personal computer.
00:20:00 In this video, the author demonstrates how to create a macro in Excel 2010. First, they click on the icon for the sheet they want to create a macro for. Next, they click on the Macros button in the ribbon, and then they find the macro they just created and click on Run. The macro runs all six steps of the macro without any problems. In order to have the macro run in other locations, the author turns on the Use Relative References button.
00:25:00 In this first video of a three-part series on Excel VBA, the author demonstrates how to use the Macro Recorder to create simple macros. He demonstrates how to use absolute and relative references, and how to use the recorder to create filters and sorting macros.
00:30:00 This video introduces the user to Excel VBA, and demonstrates how to create a macro to format a cell in a particular way based on the value contained within that cell. The user also demonstrates how to create another macro to display the birthdays of everyone in a column using a custom number formatting.
00:35:00 This 1-part video tutorial introduces the beginner to Excel VBA, covering basic concepts and how to work with cells and data. The video explains how to use functions to format cells and hide data, as well as how to copy and paste data. The tutorial ends with a demonstration of how to create a macro that formats social security numbers to the last four digits and displays asterisks on the left-hand side to indicate that the digits are hidden.
00:40:00 The author demonstrates how to use a combination of a formula and a function to truncate a social security number to the last four digits. He explains that in order to do this, he needs to use cell references and quotation marks around the characters that he wants to appear. He then copies and pastes the formula and function to the social security number column, and deletes the original content. Finally, he selects the cell he started on and finishes recording the macro.
00:45:00 This video tutorial demonstrates how to create macros using Excel's various tools. The first two macros create simple sorts and filters, while the third macro is more complex and allows for filtering by multiple criteria. The instructor demonstrates how to create buttons for sorting and filtering, which can be used by coworkers who may not be familiar with Excel's core features.
00:50:00 This 1-hour video tutorial teaches how to use Excel's macro recorder to create macros that allow users to filter data by hours worked. The first part of the tutorial shows how to create macros that filter data by full time (35-40 hours) and by hours worked in the past week. The second part of the tutorial shows how to use cell and sheet protection to protect data from being edited by end users.
00:55:00 In this first part of a three-part tutorial on Excel VBA, the user demonstrates how to open and use the Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) interface. They then show how to insert a module and write some code. Next, they show how to run code, ask questions, and explore the immediate window. The user then demonstrates how to use the Object Browser to access various VBA objects.
