The role of macros

The role of macros

Macros are to organize some commands together and use them as a single command to complete a certain Function. Macros can simplify steps and improve work efficiency.

1. Record a macro, if you keep repeating several same operations. This can be achieved by using the macro function. First, we need to record a new macro, which simply means recording the steps we want to repeat. The method is: click Tools - Macro - Record new macro. After clicking, you will start recording the macro, recording your steps step by step.

2. Manage macros. After recording the macro, you can use the Visual Basic Editor to view the macro code to correct errors or change the macro. For example, if you want a macro that wraps text and also makes the text bold, you can record another macro that makes cell text bold, and then copy the instructions in that macro to the macro that makes the text bold. This can be easily implemented in a macro for line breaks.

3. Macro security provides security protection for viruses that can be spread through macros in Excel. If you share a macro with others, you can do so by using a digital signature (Digital signature: An electronic, encryption-based secure verification stamp on a macro or document. This signature confirms that the macro or document came from the person who issued it and has not been tampered with.) Verify the authenticity of other users, thus ensuring a reliable source for other users. So whenever you open a workbook that contains macros, you can use the method of first verifying the source of the macros and then enabling them.
