1. Modeling using VBA

2. Using Toolbox This is a label This is a button Using the Toolbox select a GUI element and by mouse-click place it on the frame This is a text box

3. Using User Form Work with Common Button, Text Box

5. Working with Combo Box

6. Working with List Box

7. Working with Image Control, Spin Button

8. Work with Multipage, Option controls

9. Work with Scroll Bar, Check Box, Frame controls

10. Work with additional controls

11. Modules & Procedures Module – collection of logically related procedures & functions grouped together Procedure – a group of ordered statements enclosed by Sub and End Sub Function – the same as a procedure, but also returns some value and is enclosed between Function and End Function key words

12. Procedure & Function Examples Sub ShowTime() Range("C1") = Now() End Sub Function sumNo(x, y) sumNo = x + y End Function Function: returns something Procedure: doesn’ t returns anything

13. Calling procedures vs. calling functions Sub z(a) MsgBox a End Sub Sub x() Call z("ABC") End Sub Sub y() z "ABC “ End Sub Sub ShowSum() varSum= Module1.sumNo(3,5) MsgBox varSum End Sub Function sumNo(x, y) sumNo = x + y End Function If there are several sumNo functions in several modules/forms, need to use the full name of the function

14. Passing Arguments by Value or by Reference Passing arguments by reference – – Is the VBA default – Means, if any changes happened to the argument variables, they will be preserved after the function/procedure finishes Passing arguments by value – – Is possible in VBA (by explicit definition) – Means, the pre-calling state of the argument variables will be preserved after the procedure/function finishes

15. Arguments by Ref/by Val. Examples Sub TestPassing1() Dim y As Integer y = 50 AddNo1 y MsgBox y AddNo2 y MsgBox y End Sub Sub AddNo1(ByRef x As Integer) x = x + 10 End Sub Sub AddNo2(x As Integer) x = x + 10 End Sub public Sub TestPassing2() Dim y As Integer y = 50 AddNo3 y MsgBox y End Sub private Sub AddNo3(ByVal x _ As Integer) x = x + 10 End Sub

16. Functions/Procedure Scope Use public to allow any module to call the function/procedure Use private to make limited access to the function/procedure (only from the owning module)

17. VBA Variables A variable is used to store temporary information within a Procedure, Function, Module … A variable name – Must start with letter and can ’ t contain spaces and special characters (such as “ & ”, “ % ”, “ \ ” ) – Can ’ t be any excel keyword ( “ if ”, “ while ”… ) – Can ’ t have identical name to any existing class ( “ Worksheet ”, “ Workbook ”… )

18. VBA Data Type Byte – positive integer numbers (0:255) Integer – integers (-32,768 : 32,767) Long – 4-byte integer Currency – for fixed-point calculations Single – 2-byte floating-point numbers Double – double-precision floating-point numbers Date – used to store dates and times as real numbers. String – contains a sequence of characters

19. Using Variables Declaring Variables – Format: Dim varibleName AS dataType – Examples: Dim myText As String Dim myNum As Integer Dim myObj As Range – The default value of any numeric variable is zero any string variable – “” (empty string) an Object variable – is nothing
