Why Use Excel VBA?

While users cannot directly manipulate the main Excel software through VBA, they can, however, master the art of making macros to optimize their time in Excel. There are two ways to make Excel macros.

The first method is to use the Macro Recorder. After activating the recorder, Excel will record all the steps a user makes and save it as a “process” known as a macro. When the user ends the recorder, this macro is saved and can be assigned to a button that will run the exact same process again when clicked. This method is relatively simple and requires no inherent knowledge of the VBA code. This method will work for simple processes.

However, the downfall of this method is that it is not very customizable, and the macro will mimic the user’s input exactly. By default, recorder macros also use absolute referencing instead of relative referencing. IKt means that macros made in this way are very hard to use with variables and “smart” processes.
