    Introduction

    I want to thank you for choosing this book, Excel VBA - A Step-by-Step Comprehensive Guide on Excel VBA Programming Tips and Tricks for Effective Strategies and hope you find the book informative to learn Excel VBA.

    It is difficult for a person to become an expert in VBA within a matter of days. It takes patience, time and practice to master coding in VBA. The first few books of the series provided information on different parts of Excel VBA. You learnt about the different data types, functions and methods you can use in Excel VBA. You also covered information on how you can handle errors and exceptions in VBA using the compiler and the visual basic environment.

    There are still some topics that you will need to familiarize yourself with if you want to master coding in VBA. This book covers some of those topics. As a programmer, you will use the words procedures and sub procedures numerous times. This is because you will only be working on building and writing code for sub procedures. This book will provide information on what a sub procedure is, and how you can develop one for your project. You will also gather information on some tips and tricks that you can use to improve the project that you develop.

    There are times when your system will slow down because of the volume of data, or code. In such situations, you can use some of the tips mentioned in this book to improve the performance of your project.

    Thank you for purchasing the book. I hope you gathered all the information you were looking for.

    Chapter One: Facts about VBA

    Unlike the usual programming languages with only take code to build a program, we can record actions in VBA using the macro recorder. This has been covered extensively in the previous books. This chapter covers some important facts about macros and VBA.

    Making macros available on every MS Excel Worksheet

    When you begin to record a macro in VBA, Excel will prompt you to save the macro in a specific location. You can choose from the following locations: the workbook you are writing the macro in or the common workbook. If you save the macro in the current workbook, it will not be available for any other user to use in a different workbook. If you want to use a single macro or procedure across different workbooks, you should save it in personal.xlsb.

    The personal.xlsb workbook is a hidden file, and cannot be seen or edited unless you unhide the file. You can view the file when you choose to look at all files in an Excel window.

    Types Of Codes Found Across The Internet

    You will come across three types of macros across the internet. The first type is the sub() macro. This is a macro that will run and execute a block of code or statements. This is the most common macro type available on the internet.

    The second type is a function. This function is like the function that you use in excel, but unlike Excel functions, it is a user defined function. This function will also use VBA code.

    The third type of macro is an event procedure that will work only when a certain event occurs. A macro which runs the moment you open your workbook is a classic example of this this type of macro.

    You can choose a macro depending on what you want to another. For example, you can record a macro and use a shortcut key to call it when you want to format some cells. Alternatively, you can define a formula within a macro and store it in your
