<p>[QUOTE="rlm's cents, post: 274864, member: 7957"]Macros are basically a program you write to tell Excel what to do. Pretty much, you write what you would tell Excel to do (set print area, enter data, sort by ?, etc.). Excel stores it and later you tell Excel to execute it. They can get very complicated or be very simple. There are even macros you can download (watch for viruses) or buy. Writing one to sort and them print all Canadian coins, then all 1900's coins, then all coins >$100 or whatever you want one at a time or all at once should not be that involved assuming that you are well familiar with Excel.</p><p><br /></p><p>The nice part of Lotus was that the macro was part of the work sheet. Therefor the macro could modify itself. I could adjust it according to the data that was in the worksheet[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
