In this session, you will learn about the various events and objects in VBA, with a focus on worksheet events. The video explains the concept of events in VBA and demonstrates how to use the worksheet activate function, as well as other worksheet events like before double-click and calculate. You will see examples of how to perform specific actions based on these events, and learn practical steps to automate tasks within Excel.

What will you learn

  • Introduction to VBA events and objects.
  • Understanding the concept of event-driven programming in VBA.

  • Writing and executing worksheet-related event functions.
  • Examples of different worksheet events (e.g., before double-click, calculate).
  • Practical steps to automate actions within Excel based on events.

Takeaway notes

  • VBA is an event-driven language which means it captures events within the workbook or worksheet and takes actions based on these events.
  • Events can include actions such as switching sheets, double-clicking cells, selecting cells, and dragging formulas.
  • Writing a worksheet event function involves first using the worksheet activate function.
  • Various functions can be selected and customized to automate specific tasks (e.g., before double-click, calculate).
