Excel Macros

Excel Macros

(OP)
I am looking for a good or best site to find macros to use in my engineering spreadsheets.  I have a few macros in mind, but would like to see a site that has some engineering macros and go from there.

RE: Excel Macros

Macros for what?  You'll find that there are tons available, but you need to know what you are looking for.

Well, I am generating an IO list for an offshore platform and being able to use macros to fill in cells given certain information would speed up the process.  I am looking for something like given data in a cell or cells, insert particular info into another cell and be able to do it automatically without having to run the macro; for example, after information has been entered into a particular cell, it automatically outputs specific data into another cell.  I am fairly new to VBA but have done quite a bit of programming in the past.

RE: Excel Macros

You should be able to do that pretty easily with case statements and maybe a few dropdown boxes.

Can you give me a really good site that is specific to creating excel macros to give me some ideas?

RE: Excel Macros

Sounds like this is a perfect application for a relational database.....
