Macro is program or a code which resides within the Excel file, which may be wont to automate tons of tasks in Excel. Even though macros are mainly related to Microsoft Excel, this feature is out there in various products of the Microsoft Office suite. A macro can be used to automate routine tasks.
Simply record your keystrokes as you perform the routine task and the next time you need to perform that routine task, you just play back all of those keystrokes and all of your work is done automatically.
You can also write code in VBA for Excel and use that for your macro instead of, or in addition to, the keystrokes you recorded. You can assign hotkeys or enter event triggers like On Worksheet Open to run the macro for even more automation.
Macros are written in VBA (Visual Basic for Applications), a language almost like Visual Basic..
