Excel macros
Spreadsheet task scripts
Excel macros are automated sequences of commands in Microsoft Excel that perform repetitive tasks.
Written in Visual Basic for Applications (VBA), they can format data, generate reports, or execute complex calculations with a single keystroke.
Macros range from simple recorded actions to sophisticated programs: I wrote a macro to clean up the monthly sales data.
Because macros can execute code, they pose security risks—malicious macros have long been a vector for computer viruses.
