Working with Macros

A Macro is a series of steps that can be recorded and played back in order. A Macro can be created by recording your menu selections and clicks. There are several kinds of Macros, depending on the purpose and the actions. An Event Macro does something when you click on a button or a cell. A User-Defined Macro is programming that makes the computer do the work.
 

My mentor, Fr. Paul, wrote a financial database. He watched the church staff go through the process to create a new check entry: 8 steps. Count them again: 8 steps. So, he created a Macro that walked through the menus automatically.

That's what Macros do: simplify the task.
