Automate tasks in Excel by creating macros using Visual Basic for Applications (VBA), enabling you to write and run custom code to manipulate data, automate processes, and enhance functionality within Excel spreadsheets. Additionally, you’ll gain skills in developing user-defined functions (UDFs), creating interactive forms, and integrating VBA to perform complex operations and solve specific business problems in Excel.
“Visual Basic is programming in Excel. Although the course is different from the run-of-the-mill formulas, advanced Excel knowledge is required. On the first day, you will become familiar with the various functions, while on the second day you will take part in ‘practical’s’ where you apply the newly gained knowledge to different scenarios and become confident in practical use.”
