Create Excel Macros Without Programming

The main purpose of Create Excel Macros Without Programming is to help you:

• During the first stages of learning how to work with macros and VBA.
• Start creating macros without programming.​

I am mindful that to learn about, and master, Excel macros and VBA you need to take the right approach.

My experience is that the main reason people shy away from working with macros and VBA is because these tools are usually associated with programming.

​However, as you learn in this Book, the association several people make between macros and programming is not always correct. You can work with basic macros without programming.

In other words, Excel has a set of tools and features that allow you start creating, and working with, macros even if you have no programming knowledge or experience.

​​In Create Excel Macros Without Programming, you learn about certain Excel tools and features that are designed to help you work with, and learn about, macros. You can apply the principles, processes and strategies you learn in this Book to create basic but very powerful macros.

​Create Excel Macros Without Programming is divided into seven Chapters.

• In Chapter 1, you learn how to set up Excel to work with macros and VBA.
