If you’re interested in learning how to incorporate user interfaces into Excel spreadsheets, you’ll want to take this course. In Macros Part 4, Excel expert David Ringstrom introduces you to the concept of UserForms. Step-by-step, David walks you through the process of creating custom dialog boxes that can add interactivity in Excel and better manage a user’s actions. He then builds a custom printing interface that he dubbed “Plug and Print,” which allows you to pick and choose the worksheets to print from any workbook. The presentation also teaches you how to create a basic UserForm for prompting users to input data, including all the required fields. Finally, you’ll see how to move module sheets and UserForms between workbooks, as well as how to remove them from workbooks when they’re no longer needed.
David demonstrates every technique at least twice: first, on a PowerPoint slide with numbered steps, and second, in Excel 2016. He draws your attention to any differences in Excel 2013, 2010, or 2007 during the presentation as well as in his detailed handouts. David also provides an Excel workbook that includes most of the examples he uses during the webcast.
