Macro generation

I dont know what Macro's are or how to use them.

RE: Macro generation

Hi Michael

Now sir macros are something that you learn on an advanced course, but i will tell you what they are about and why you use them

A macro can be use to record a series of tasks that you would need to do or others may need to do, and a macro will allow you to run through these task whilst the macro records them

after you have recorded a macro you can run them at any time and the macro replays the tasks in a split second of the time it took you to create them

Hope this covers it for you, if this is something you will need i would recommend you come on an advanced excel course

Excel tip:

Hide data in Excel Worksheets

Let's say you have some data in cell 'C5' you would like to hide from the casual viewer.

Click cell 'C5' to select it.

Click the 'Format' menu, select 'Cells'. When the 'Format Cells' dialogue box opens, click the 'Numbers' tab (if necessary), then select 'Custom' from the 'Category' list.

Double-click the 'Type' entry box and type three semi-colons: ";;;"

Click 'OK' to close the dialogue box and accept the new formatting.

The data in cell 'C5' disappears. It's still there and will work in calculations, but it isn't visible.

If you need to check the data, just click the blank cell and the contents appear in the 'Formula bar'.
