Top 116 Useful Excel Macro [VBA] Codes Examples

Macro codes can save you a ton of time. You can automate small as well as heavy tasks with VBA codes.

And do you know? With the help of macros, you can break all the limitations of Excel which you think Excel has.

And today, I have listed some of the useful codes examples to help you become more productive in your day to day work.

You can use these codes even if you haven’t used VBA before that. But here’s the first thing to know:

What is a Macro Code?

In Excel, macro code is a programming code which is written in VBA (Visual Basic for Applications) language. The idea behind using a macro code is to automate an action which you perform manually in Excel, otherwise.

For example, you can use a code to print only a particular range of cells just with a single click instead of selecting the range > File Tab > Print > Print Select > OK Button.

How to use a Macro Code in Excel?

Before you use these codes, make sure you have your developer tab on your Excel ribbon to access VB editor. Once you activate developer tab you can use below steps to paste a VBA code into VB editor.

  1. Go to your developer tab and click on “Visual Basic” to open the Visual Basic Editor.

Basic Codes

1. Add Serial Numbers

This macro code will automatically add serial numbers to your Excel sheet, which can be helpful if you work with large amounts of data.

Sub AddSerialNumbers()
Dim i As Integer
On Error GoTo Last
i = InputBox("Enter Value", "Enter Serial Numbers")
For i = 1 To i
ActiveCell.Value = i
ActiveCell.Offset(1, 0).Activate
Next i
Last:Exit Sub
End Sub

To use this code, you need to select the cell from where you want to start the serial numbers and when you run this it shows you a message box where you need to enter the highest number for the serial numbers and click OK.

And once you click OK, it simply runs a loop and add a list of serial numbers to the cells downward.

2. Insert Multiple Columns

This code helps you to enter multiple columns in a single click.

Sub InsertMultipleColumns()
Dim i As Integer
Dim j As Integer
ActiveCell.EntireColumn.Select
On Error GoTo Last
i = InputBox("Enter number of columns to insert", "Insert Columns")
For j = 1 To i
Selection.Insert Shift:=xlToRight, CopyOrigin:=xlFormatFromRightorAbove
Next j
Last: Exit Sub
End Sub

When you run this code, it asks you the number columns you want to add and when you click OK, it adds entered number of columns after the selected cell. If you want to add columns before the selected cell, replace the xlToRight to xlToLeft in the code.

3. Insert Multiple Rows

With this code, you can enter multiple rows in the worksheet. When you run this code, you can enter the number of rows to insert and make sure to select the cell from where you want to insert the new rows.

Sub InsertMultipleRows()
Dim i As Integer
Dim j As Integer
ActiveCell.EntireRow.Select
On Error GoTo Last
i = InputBox("Enter number of columns to insert", "Insert Columns")
For j = 1 To i
Selection.Insert Shift:=xlToDown, CopyOrigin:=xlFormatFromRightorAbove
Next j
Last: Exit Sub
End Sub

If you want to add rows before the selected cell, replace the xlToDown to xlToUp in the code.

4. Auto Fit Columns

This code quickly auto fits all the columns in your worksheet.

Sub AutoFitColumns()
Cells.Select
Cells.EntireColumn.AutoFit
End Sub

When you run this code, it will select all the cells in your worksheet and instantly auto-fit all the columns.

5. Auto Fit Rows

You can use this code to auto fit all the rows in a worksheet.

Sub AutoFitRows()
Cells.Select
Cells.EntireRow.AutoFit
End Sub

When you run this code, it will select all the cells in your worksheet and instantly auto fit all the rows.

6. Remove Text Wrap

This code will help you to remove text wrap from the entire worksheet with a single click.

Sub RemoveTextWrap()
Range("A1").WrapText = False
End Sub

It will first select all the columns and then remove text wrap and auto fit all the rows and columns. There’s also a shortcut that you can use (Alt + H +‌W) for but if you add this code to Quick Access Toolbar it’s convenient than a keyboard shortcut.

7. Unmerge Cells

This code simply uses the unmerge options which you have on the HOME‌ tab.

Sub UnmergeCells()
Selection.UnMerge
End Sub

The benefit of using this code is you can add it to the QAT and unmerge all the cell in the selection. And if you want to un-merge a specific range you can define that range in the code by replacing the word selection.

8. Open Calculator

In Windows, there is a specific calculator and by using this macro code you can open that calculator directly from Excel.

Sub OpenCalculator()
Application.ActivateMicrosoftApp Index:=0
End Sub

As I mentioned that it’s for windows and if you run this code in the MAC version of VBA you’ll get an error.

9. Add Header/Footer Date

This macro adds a date to the header when you run it. It simply uses the tag “&D” for adding the date.

Sub DateInHeader()
With ActiveSheet.PageSetup
.LeftHeader = ""
.CenterHeader = "&D"
.RightHeader = ""
.LeftFooter = ""
.CenterFooter = ""
.RightFooter = ""
End With
End Sub

You can also change it to the footer or change the side by replacing the “” with the date tag. And if you want to add a specific date instead of the current date you can replace the “&D” tag with that date from the code.

10. Custom Header/Footer

When you run this code, it shows an input box that asks you to enter the text which you want to add as a header, and once you enter it click OK.

Sub CustomHeader()
Dim myText As String
myText = InputBox("Enter your text here", "Enter Text")
With ActiveSheet.PageSetup
.LeftHeader = ""
.CenterHeader = myText
.RightHeader = ""
.LeftFooter = ""
.CenterFooter = ""
.RightFooter = ""
End With
End Sub

If you see this closely you have six different lines of code to choose the place for the header or footer. Let’s say if you want to add left-footer instead of center header simply replace the “myText” to that line of the code by replacing the “” from there.

Formatting Codes

These VBA codes will help you to format cells and ranges using some specific criteria and conditions.

11. Highlight Duplicates from Selection

This macro will check each cell of your selection and highlight the duplicate values. You can also change the color from the code.

Sub HighlightDuplicateValues()
Dim myRange As Range
Dim myCell As Range
Set myRange = Selection
For Each myCell In myRange
If WorksheetFunction.CountIf(myRange, myCell.Value) > 1 Then
myCell.Interior.ColorIndex = 36
End If
Next myCell
End Sub

12. Highlight the Active Row and Column

I really love to use this macro code whenever I have to analyze a data table.

Private Sub Worksheet_BeforeDoubleClick(ByVal Target As Range, Cancel As Boolean)
Dim strRange As String
strRange = Target.Cells.Address & "," & _
Target.Cells.EntireColumn.Address & "," & _
Target.Cells.EntireRow.Address
Range(strRange).Select
End Sub

Here are the quick steps to apply this code.

  1. Open VBE (ALT + F11).
  2. Go to Project Explorer (Ctrl + R, If hidden).
  3. Select your workbook & double click on the name of a particular worksheet in which you want to activate the macro.
  4. Paste the code into it and select the “BeforeDoubleClick” from event drop down menu.
  5. Close VBE and you are done.

Remember that, by applying this macro you will not able to edit the cell by double click.

13. Highlight Top 10 Values

Just select a range and run this macro and it will highlight top 10 values with the green color.

Sub TopTen()
Selection.FormatConditions.AddTop10
Selection.FormatConditions(Selection.FormatConditions.Count).S
tFirstPriority
With Selection.FormatConditions(1)
.TopBottom = xlTop10Top
.Rank = 10
.Percent = False
End With
With Selection.FormatConditions(1).Font
.Color = -16752384
.TintAndShade = 0
End With
With Selection.FormatConditions(1).Interior
.PatternColorIndex = xlAutomatic
.Color = 13561798
.TintAndShade = 0
End With
Selection.FormatConditions(1).StopIfTrue = False
End Sub

14. Highlight Named Ranges

If you are not sure about how many named ranges you have in your worksheet then you can use this code to highlight all of them.

Sub HighlightRanges()
Dim RangeName As Name
Dim HighlightRange As Range
On Error Resume Next
For Each RangeName In ActiveWorkbook.Names
Set HighlightRange = RangeName.RefersToRange
HighlightRange.Interior.ColorIndex = 36
Next RangeName
End Sub

15. Highlight Greater than Values

Once you run this code it will ask you for the value from which you want to highlight all greater values.

Dim i As Integer
i = InputBox("Enter Greater Than Value", "Enter Value")
Selection.FormatConditions.Delete
Selection.FormatConditions.Add Type:=xlCellValue, _
Operator:=xlGreater, Formula1:=i
Selection.FormatConditions(Selection.FormatConditions.Count).S
tFirstPriority
With Selection.FormatConditions(1)
.Font.Color = RGB(0, 0, 0)
.Interior.Color = RGB(31, 218, 154)
End With
End Sub

Could somebody help me create a macro script for the following routine.
I have a survey form send to various survey respondents which is now completed and I have already exported it as an Excel File. This imported survey data has 6 (Six) options (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and N/A) for each survey question. Lets say, I have 5 respondents for each survey. So each respondent will select their option out of these six options, which I am going to show in separate colors in Agenda Sheet (Excel file) where I need to run this requested code/script.
Against, each question I have 7 cells – The first sex cells for the options; and the 7th cell for the consensus choice. All cells are with “No Fill – White” initially. When I double click each of these 7 cells – I would like to see the following:
Cell 1: Initial (White); When double clicked (Red)
Cell 2: Initial (White); When double clicked (Yellow)
Cell 3: Initial (White); When double clicked (Grey)
Cell 4: Initial (White); When double clicked (Green)
Cell 5: Initial (White); When double clicked (Fluorescent Green)
Cell N/A: Initial (White); When double clicked (stay White) Any help would be appreciated in this regard.
Thanks in advance

A helpful set of Subs and I was able to leverage “65. Create a Table of Content”. I found one issue in the code when you referenced the current workbook as “ThisWordbook” rather than “ActiveWorkbook”. In my case, I had 2 workbooks open and the original Sub code interacted with both open workbooks – not just the active one. Changing references in the code from “ThisWorkbook” to “ActiveWorkbook” restricted the sub to the single active workbook and eliminated runTime errors that I was encountering. It appears that you may want to consider this change for other Subs that use “This..” rather than “Active…” for workbook references since you are usually intending only to interact with a single [active] workbook. Thank you for putting this together. Reply

Is there a code to apply different themes to each individual sheet? Each time I apply a theme it updates the entire workbook to that theme. I was wondering if there was a macro that could automatically update a sheet to its desired theme when clicked? Reply

Hi I’ve just started learning programing with VBA and I was wondering how I can create a specific MACRO. The macro I’d hope to create should have the function that it automatically merges cells once the cell height exceeds it’s maximum height of 409 due to large data being put into it. Could you assist me on this please? Kind regards Reply

I need your help in making a little program.
I have a list of 10 angles in a column in excel worksheet.
First of all I have to find out the sin of those angles in the next column.
Then, divide those values by the minimum of them.
What will be the code?
Thanking you in advance.

Great info. You put a lot of time into this. Unfortunately, it does not cover what I am trying to do. Do you have a code for the following scenario?
I have a spreadsheet that contains 100 rows. Each row has multiple columns of data. I would like to take data from each row – one row at a time and copy into another spreadsheet. This spreadsheet is designed to look like a report. I am able to do this with my current level of knowledge. I will need to do this for each row of data – thus, I will need to do this 100x. I have created a recorded macro that will take each cell from the 1st row and place it in the proper place on the “report spreadsheet” and then print the spreadsheet. I need to do this for each row though. I actually spent the afternoon recording a macro where I went through and did this individually with each row (100 times). When I tried to run the macro, it said it was too big. Ugh… all that work for nothing. I have read about looping, but was not sure how to code that. I was hoping that I could add a looping code to the first original macro that takes info from row 1 of spreadsheet1 and pastes it into the proper cells on spreadsheet2 (report spreadsheet) and then prints it. Is this possible or will it be too big as well? Thank you in advance for your help. Reply

This VBA code is designed to periodically move the mouse cursor and simulate mouse clicks, as well as toggle the Num Lock key on and off. The code is intended for Microsoft Excel and includes a user interface that displays the cursor position, time elapsed, time remaining, the number of times the code has been activated, and the total run time. Here’s an explanation of the code with comments: Declare the necessary Windows API functions and constants for mouse and cursor operations: Private Declare PtrSafe Function SetCursorPos Lib “user32” (ByVal x As Long, ByVal y As Long) As Long
Private Declare PtrSafe Sub mouse_event Lib “user32” (ByVal dwFlags As Long, ByVal dx As Long, ByVal dy As Long, ByVal cButtons As Long, ByVal dwExtraInfo As Long)
Private Const MOUSEEVENTF_LEFTDOWN = &H2
Private Const MOUSEEVENTF_LEFTUP = &H4
Private Const MOUSEEVENTF_RIGHTDOWN As Long = &H8
Private Const MOUSEEVENTF_RIGHTUP As Long = &H10 Declare PtrSafe Sub Sleep Lib “kernel32” (ByVal dwMilliseconds As Long) Public Declare PtrSafe Function GetCursorPos Lib “user32” (lpPoint As POINTAPI) As Long
Public Type POINTAPI
x As Long
y As Long
End Type 2. Initialize the main subroutine, MouseMove:
Sub MouseMove() 3. Declare and initialize variables, set up the worksheet layout, and set default values:
‘… (variable declarations and worksheet setup) … 4. Set up a loop to continuously monitor the cursor position and time elapsed:
Do
‘… (monitor cursor position, time elapsed, and update the worksheet) …
Loop 5. Do
‘… (monitor cursor position, time elapsed, and update the worksheet) …
Loop If x1 x2 Or y1 y2 Then
StartTime = Timer
Worksheets(“Sheet1”).Range(“B4”).Interior.ColorIndex = xlNone
End If 6. Update the worksheet with the cursor position, time elapsed, and other information:
‘… (update the worksheet with cursor position, time elapsed, etc.) … 7. When the elapsed time reaches a certain threshold (in this case, SecondsToActivate), move the cursor, simulate mouse clicks, and toggle the Num Lock key:
If SecondsElapsed >= SecondsToActivate Then
‘… (move cursor, simulate mouse clicks, and toggle Num Lock key) …
End If 8. Sleep for a short period before the next iteration of the loop:
Sleep 250 9. Close the MouseMove subroutine:
End Sub This code will repeatedly move the mouse cursor, simulate left mouse button clicks, and toggle the Num Lock key when the specified time elapses without user interaction. Reply

At the start of day one she has 550cm to climb
at the start of day two she has fallen back 6cm, so will have 496cm.
at the start of day three she has fallen back 11.4cm, so will have 447.40cm

Trying to find a way to log maintenance done on equipment. I have made a Table set that highlights when something is past due based on dates need to be done. I am trying to figure out if there is a way to track or make a back log of changes made so you can go back and see, O I did that on this day even outside of the preset dates. Thoughts? Reply

Hi Puneet, I am hoping to make to leap into VBA/macro world having used Excel on a daily basis for many years! I followed the steps to create a PERSONAL.XLSB file and then added each of the modules above individually. Unfortunately, every time I open Excel I now receive a message from the .xlsb file as follows: ‘Microsoft Visual Basic for Applications – Compile error: – Expected: identifier’ I am determined not to let this put me off and not to delete the file until I know more. I also felt it would be a waste of time spent in creating them. I did a quick Google search a found articles relating to reserved words but I doubt that I have any as I am only using the module above. Is this something you can help me with? I have no doubt they will be a quick hit game changer once I get them to run so thanks for your work! WK Reply

I must say. I know a bit about Excel. This is most enlightening. Well done. Cheers Reply

Hello,
I am a beginner in VBA programming and I have the following problem that I could not solve:
I have 4 columns with data such as ID, raw material name, price and date. I transferred the data from the raw material name column to a ListBox, I selected a raw material name from the ListBox (column 2) and I transferred the corresponding line values to TextBox1, TextBox2, TextBox3 and TextBox4.up to this point I managed to solve problem. I want to change the values in TextBox1..4 and then transfer them back to the initial addresses (eg A2, B2, C2, D2 cells. I couldn’t solve this. If you can help me with some tips I would be grateful.
Thank you in advance. Reply

Hi Everyone, Can someone help me with my macro.
I’m trying to create a macro that can put work week period align with the dates in column A from calendar in Sheet 2 (contains calendar from 2019-2020 with week period in column B). However, I’m not sure if it is possible. For example, March 5, 2020 will fall into Week 10. Thank you so much. Reply
