Excel VBA for Beginners هذه الدورة تدرس باللغة الإنجليزية

تفاصيل الدورة

I created this corse since I have experienced during my live trainings and even from my students of other VBA courses that I released on the Internet, that most of my students are not IT-skilled people. They are just users of Excel and want to go beyond the basic functionalities of Excel and create automated report or automate daily tasks.

For this reason I have created a course with the right pace to make it clear to anyone.

In this course I start explaining what VBA is and why VBA. For example, if you are an user of Excel, e.g. in the Accounting Department, what VBA is and why you need it.

For this reason it is important to understand first of all the concept of object oriented programming and explain how Excel is an application structured in objects whose properties and actions/events can be managed, manipulated and updated using VBA.

I start with an overview of the Developer ribbon, which is the menu section where to record macros, execute macros, access the VBA editor and much more.

I will show and explain the structure of a VBA object and how to record a VBA macro.

Once recorded, I will explain how to read and interpret a VBA code and how to modify it for your goals.

I will show how to make the user interact with the data in the worksheets using userforms and how to format the reports automatically.

I have organized this course focusing on an example which is an Excel file or workbook composed of more worksheets.

At the end the user will be able to exchange data between the worksheets and import/export them to external text and binary files.

In details:
