In this video you'll learn how to record a macro, add a macro button, and edit the macro code in VBA in less than 10 minutes.
Using macros, you'll be able to save hundreds of hours by automating any repetitive or boring task in your day to day job. To make the tutorial realistic, we'll simulate a real-life scenario where we need to format a dataset and create a chart every week. As this is a repetitive taks, you can record a macro so you only have to click one button to format what would otherwise take 5 or more minutes.
Finally, you'll learn to save the Excel file as a Macro enabled workbook so the Macros remain active.

Why is this one different than the one in the description Kenji?
Thank you Kenji for the informative video. I just wanted to add that VBA is not a tool, but rather a programming language. Great job by highlighting its capabilities!
I love Excel macros. I used a relatively simple one to automate individualized customer retention documents for our firm. Saves so much time.
Hi Kenji, I am in the final year of my engineering course, and this helped me in my design calculations and report. And got to learn a new thing. Thanks a lot.
Glad it helped! Awesome to hear :)
Hey Kenji, thank you so much for all the videos. They are making a real difference. Stay the way you are (very authentic and with your energetic smile) and you will go very far with this TH-cam channel. A year (mostly 2 ) from now you will have a million subscribers.
Cannot wait to create my first macro. Easy & precise directing 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Gracias Kenji! Excelente video
Nice video, Kenji! I didn’t know I wanted to learn about Macros until I saw your video. Thanks!
Thanks for the video Kenji!!!
You are excellent. Very calming and professional to listen to. keep up the great work.
Super video! Short, well explained and easy to understand.
Thanks for such short but concise info
Nice video. Very clear. Thank You!
Great content, thank you!
Good descriptions, thanks. I'd love to see one on how to easily export a macro so others can use it.
phenomenal video!
Thanks for this! That will save me big chunk of time everyday! Also thanks for the shortcuts. Value packed video! Subscribed
Excellent video,thanks.
Thank you for the video. Great to leaning!
This was very helpful! Thanks :)
OMG, You are phenomenal, just phenomenal. Gracias.
Kenji, you the king
Another new learning for me.... Thanks again Sir and more power...
Your videos are so easy to understand 😊✅
Really useful! Also very well explained!
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you Sir... I was wondering how to save the file but you solved the problem just like a magic.. Thank you so so much!!😇
Great video, thank you.
Hey Kenji, You are just awesome❤
bro! this is very helpful! thank you for this!
Best Explaination Ever
Thank you that very useful info!
Great as usual
Good Job brother. Well explained :)
This is amazing stuff! Wow
Thank Kenji we don't learn this from school and the online course is expensive. Now I can experiment here on my PC.
Hi Kenji,
As usual, thanks for the informative tutorials. Would you do a tutorial on VBA please?
Hi Kenji, we need more such videos on Dashboards Macros VBAs for beginners.. Thanks
thanks mate for your kindness to share
I subbed this channel because of keyboard-shortcutting. You have my respect.
Awesome! Can use this to really automate some office tasks 👍
Absolutely!
Great going Kenji!
Appreciate your support :)
Great beginner intro to VBA! I do, however, feel compelled to mention that "Merge and Center" is generally not considered best practices for more complicated workbooks.
Agree. Merge and center is a big no no
@@phonekl8441 how come?
@@Brenleysage merge And center makes your spreadsheet looks better.
However, it will reduce the efficiency of data filtering. For example, if you merge Col A and B, then you will not be able to do a proper filter on Col A and B anymore.
@@phonekl8441can’t you get a proper filter if you apply it to the column below
This is awesome. I have to upload stocks and sales data on google sheets on a day to day basis, which requires quite a few formulas to convert dates and formatting cells. Im planning to make a master sheet on my pc where i could keep the data for each day using macros and then once the sheets are ready I can copy paste them on a new sheet and upload.
Will try it tmrw and then edit my comment. Thanks alot.
Awesome video
Thank you
This was ace! Thanks Kenji
Thank you!
Liked and subscribed!
Good Kenji 😊🙏
Wonderful subscribed 🎉
Hey I'm definitely fish out of water here, i'm more mechanical and DIY than a tech person. But I definitely see use for this material in the long run. I'm a fan of learning in general (hence why i'm watching your videos, more information..) I see this being valid in future skills. Another fantastic part of this is crossing paths with ppl whom are waaay smarter than myself in these areas. Nothing like being a beginner somewhere new. I'm quite tech saavy for the fact that I recognized all your keystrokes and was able to follow with ease, altho i'm not familiar with exel. Complete beginner here for that program.
Thank you for the video! I will definitely be watching more! Keep making excellent quality work. This was fantastic.
If you're not familiar with Excel, why would you need to learn macros? That's not me being snarky, it's a genuine question!
I would recommend you to learn Excel first because what this is doing is automating what is just an Excel process.
Hi Kenji!.
I have a question about macros.
I am working as an inventory analyst and i have to adjust the negative stock quantity as positive with the products have similar descriptions and costs. I want to record macros for that and can't seem to pin it down. Can you please give me some tips?
Giiirrrllll ima take naps at work! Thank yiuuuuu
Thanks for the video. Can we use macro to link to external app like SAP?
thank you Kenji 🥰🥰
Thank you for watching Oscar!
You have great videos and I have learned very much by watching them. I have used VBA for some time for automation. There is one small mistake in the video. The code that You showed with "xlBottom" is vertical position of the text in merged cells (B2:G2) (the text is on the bottom of the merged cells). Argument for dynamical range is xlDown (or xlToRight if you go Ctrl+Shift+Right).
thats not a small mistake... and 2nd macro works just by luck : ))
@@enderaslan7998 Agreed that it's not a small mistake. It really makes it seem like he doesn't really know what he's talking about. As for why it still works, using the ctrl+shift+arrow the recorder selects a new range from the original selection to the end of the data, so he is correct when he says that is the reason that it still works. As long as the data is consecutive you could add as many rows or columns to the ends as you want and it would still work fine, however if you move your data it would break.
I just got offered a Business Analyst position and your videos are super helpful!
Same here. How’s it going for you? I’m retraining myself in excel and SQL. Any tips that have helped you the most?
@@LilYoda66 I'd say one of the main things you need to be able to do as a Business Analyst is to look at existing systems and how to improve and enhance them. That's what I do pretty much all day
Handsome teacher ❤
Thanks for this valuable Video ❤ just one help, What is the tool or program using to record this high quality video?
bro need a playlist like basic to advance! you are great.
Noted thanks for the suggestion!
@@KenjiExplains you are welcome boss! i have been following you for a long time. i Don't get that much time to practice all of your tricks but whenever i see your video, I don't waste time to do other things 💝
keep it up Boss!
@@KenjiExplains Please let us know if you can curate one for us! Love this idea!
Can you make a video on VBA too?
Will do depending on how this one performs :)
@@KenjiExplains i will watch as much as i can watch this video so that we can get more videos on VBA.
@@KenjiExplains what number of views is good performance for you?
@@KenjiExplains same question

Nice! Thank you! Improving my excel skills would greatly improve my job/work. I need to “excel” in this badly! Lol
Kenji- thanks for the great work! You make excel so much more accessible. Question:These macros work in this workbook and the buttons only work on the page you made them on. How will this help with next weeks "financials"?
You can choose to save your macro to "This Worksheet" or "personal worksheet". If you choose personal, then you can always access the recorded macro when working on different workbooks
Really cool action :))
thank you!
Question: I've made an automatic stock tracker but cannot figure out how to have 60 individual cells change color automatically based on the current price compared to where it started the day...obviously green for + on the day and red for - on the day. Thanks in advance
Does the data needs to be within same exact cells like the data on which we recorded macro?
Great video👍.
But if theres a macro embedded in excel, will that be a problem if you import that file into Power BI?
We’ve got a data splitter at work which you can put date eg 12/09/2022 and it will auto split it into 3 columns for day,month and year. We need one for splitting names though, is there a way of doing that automatically straight away without going through data > text columns etc. the date one just comes up automatically
Do you have videos on how to run macros or vba on protected sheets?
Wish you best of luck.
What if the range of week 2 data is not same as week 1 data?
Will it work?
Hey Kenji, thank you. I was wondering why I cannot insert combo chart? It doesn'r recognize multiple columns. Says : select at least 2 series of data. I have three series, just like you
Is it possible to record macros for every data cleaning task?
Hi Kenji. Your video tutorials are really helpful. I have even enrolled myself in two of your courses. Just wanted to know if you offer any courses for those who want to enter in to data analyst role from a non IT background. If so please let me know as I am very eager at this point.
Hi there! Thank you for the message and for enrolling in out courses.
We’re currently working on a data analyst track which will include SQL and Power BI. Hopefully we can get that out before the new year. Stay tuned 😁
@@KenjiExplains Thank you so much Kenji. The excel tutorial is really helping me to up my excel gap in a lightening speed in just a week span. I am currently working as office administrator and really want to restart my career as junior data analyst. Will be eagerly waiting for the new course.
Do the cell numbers need to be the exact same every single time for this to work?
How can we use vba macro for financial modeling
Will you add Power BI lessons?
Good day , is it possible to make a macro for repetitive tasks but I need it for different name files. Its always the same acruins but the file names change for everydays date kind of thing . Thanks
So the shortcuts you use, are they for Windows? Are they the same for Mac users?
When adding a new macro there is a shortcut option underneath where you name the macro so there is no need to make a button 3:56
bring more videos on investment banking and finance.
I noticed you did everything with keyboard shortcuts. Can it work with actual clicking as well?
Yes kenjiiiiii
Cheers Tristan!
Hi
Would kindly asked you to make a video or send me any link regarding how to work with dates on excel sheet
To format in such manner that it is possible to have in advance when the dates expires.
Any help plz
Hi can you make a video series on financial modelling
I highly recommend using personal folder and use a shortcut
Where should I apply? Thanks!
can be possible loan amortisation table auto JV in its ledger in excel?
@KenjiExplains: In my excel I have header row starting row 6 and from number 7 row we have data in cells. I have a data in row 7 in columns a,e ,h,I,j that is calculated via a vlookup. Now I need that every time a data is entered in column E cells from row 8 , the data from row7 for columns a,h,I,j should be autopopulated in the row where we entered the data in column E . How to do this in excel using macro
Is that formula can be used in the sane sheet in another region? 😢why on creating macro gives bugs? Does the data has to be in the same range of cells to 😮execute. Selecting button and selecting the macros itself enough to link?
Good content! For the first example, what if you recieve the same data every week but on different cells?
Hey Jose, though question, I think the easiest would be to move the data to the equivalent spot (like always the first cells on Excel)
at this point you really need to start dabbling into VBA or at least googling "how do I create a macro to [insert issue] in vba" and there are plenty of websites that provide you with stuff you can just copy and paste into a module
What about if you have the same tasks everyday except your spreadsheet has variable rows? For example some days it will only have 200 rows, sometimes it goes to a couple thousand rows? How can you create a macro to auto select a # changing of rows from a list?
Will check ✔️ later
Sounds good!
When you renamed the button you highlighted the words in front of what you renamed the button how did you do that?
loving it
WARNING: 2nd macro runs because he didnt click anywhere else after pressing record macro button!
Anyone who mistakenly clicks anywhere else other than in the video, these macros will fail or worse (like "seem" as not working eventhough it does the same thing on a range already done).
If you are creating a macro teaching video you must include:
1st step to record macros
2nd to explaining range selection
3rd do whatever you want, at least it wont be executed on wrong destination
Hi Kenji, can we automate a report if the values in the cell differ every month but formatting remains the same. Will Excel automate such details like total up sum but with different values every month.
Hi Kenji, could u answer my query.
Hi how to export automation data like every 5second give right information what changes happening over there
Hi. I do not get the part in which is dynamic when the size change. Could you elaborate a little more please?
Where I can found those data to practice
5:49 ...why applying this macro doesn't 'bolden' the row ?
