  • Uses business scenarios to combine the development stage with full implementation

VBA Developer

  • User forms
  • Pivot tables
  • Spreadsheet extensions

How To Plan An Excel VBA Project?

Before pursuing the advice of a VBA consultant, it may be worth considering the following so you can develop a strategy from beginning to end.

  1. The impact it may have on your business. When planning an Excel or VBA project, think about how this can affect your business, its employees and current processes or software that may be interrupted.
  2. Time. Any project is normally time-sensitive. You should realistically discuss any time constraints you may have before hiring a VBA consultant.
  3. Learning opportunities. A VBA project may offer a learning tool to you or your staff. Although many VBAs are automated through the use of macros, there could be an element of training involved.
  4. Future-proofing. Once a project is up and running, it may occur that your application requires error prevention, or documentation (such as instructions). A good VBA consultant can help you ‘future-proof’ a tool or project by outlining exactly how everything works.
  5. Your expectations. Before hiring a VBA consultant, your team should be fully aware of what you’re looking to achieve from the project or application. It’s advisable that everyone has a clear understanding before any work is begun on an Excel VBA project.
  6. These are just some criteria to consider when planning an excel VBA project so make sure you plan out all these points and more before contacting us at The Excel Experts!

What is VBA?

VBA stands for Visual Basic for Applications. It is a programming language built into Microsoft Office and is commonly used in Excel. You can create macros to automate repetitive word- and data-processing functions and generate custom forms, graphs, and reports.

What Are Macro Functions?

Macros are used to automate tedious tasks such as applying styling and formatting, manipulating data and text, communicating with data sources such as a database, creating and edit new, or existing documents and adding functionality to a spreadsheet or workbook.

Creating and running a macro is a powerful method to automate many tasks and are used in applications across many industries such as financing, sales and the service industry to name a few examples.

Macros can also be used to create custom logic to save time on predictable or repetitive tasks.

Examples Of Macros a VBA Consultant Can Advise On

A VBA consultant can advise your business on a wide range of solutions, but what real-life scenarios can the Excel Experts help with? Below are some very common methods on how utilising a VBA macro can automate simple tasks:

  • Protecting cells with formulas

What Are Macro Functions?

  • Save worksheets as a pdf, or other file formats
