18. Lesson 2 Objectives Objects – Range –Selection –Active Sheet Methods –Select Properties –CurrentRegion –Sort –Name

19. Objects, Methods, & Properties Objects have properties that govern their appearance and behavior –Name of worksheet Methods govern the action the objects perform –Protect a worksheet Properties govern how the objects respond to a user action –Procedure is executed when the event occurs

20. Variables A variable is a name given to hold data. When a procedure uses a variable the current ‘value’ is used

21. Option Explicit and Dim Statements Using Option Explicit in a module helps maintain the integrity of each variable. Dim statements are a way to define variables in a procedure Ex. Dim NumberOfEmployees As Integer

22. Loops For Next Loops If Then If Then Else Case Do Loops –Do While –Do Until

23. For Next Sub ForNext Loop () For Counter = 1 to 10 [Step 1] Code is written here Next Counter – continues to collect iterations as a count End Sub

24. If…Then Syntax

25. If…Then…Else Syntax

26. Use a Do Until…Loop Sub DoUntilLoop () Do Until ActiveCell = “” Code is written here Loop End Sub

27. Case Is… Syntax
