Tutorials for Excel Macros and VBA

[simplyrich18]

Hello,

I'm trying to learn how to create macros and VBA codes in excel. Anyways, do you know any websites, video tutorials (aside from youtube), or any materials that can help me learn to create Macos and VBA codes even if its just the basics?

Regards,

Rich

If you want to go down a more old fasioned route. A good book is 101 Ready to use Excel Macro's by Michael Alexander. It has loads of useful ready to go macro's but expains each one as it goes, so you can learn as you can but, just implement the macro's if you need them straight away. Hope this helps
