Project Description:

In the following project, you will assist Bill Roman, Project Director, in creating a macro that will assign an operations department heading required on all reports. You will modify the macro by changing the Visual Basic Code. 

Navigate to your Excel Chapter 9   folder, and then double-click the Excel file you downloaded from MyLab IT   that displays your name—Student_Excel_9E_Operations.xlsx.   Verify that the Developer tab is enabled and the Macro Settings are set to   Disable all macros with notification. Display the Save As dialog box,   navigate to your Excel Chapter 9 folder, set the Save as type to Excel   Macro-Enabled Workbook, and then save your file.

With cell A1 active, record a   macro with the name Operations_Header and the shortcut key Ctrl + m. (Mac users, use   Option + Command + m.) Store the macro in This Workbook. As the description,   type Fills   in Operations report heading and then click OK to begin recording the macro.

Insert two blank rows at the top   of the worksheet, and then click cell A1. Type WPHRC Operations Department and then Merge & Center the   text you typed across the range A1:E1. Apply the Title cell style. In cell   A2, type Quarterly Report and then Merge & Center the text you typed   across the range A2:E2. Apply the Heading 1 cell style. Center the worksheet   Horizontally, click cell A1, and then stop recording the macro.

Delete rows 1:2, click cell A1,   and then test the macro.

On the Developer tab, in the   Code group, click Macros. Verify that the Operations_Header macro is   selected, and then click Edit.

Click File, and then click Close   and Return to Microsoft Excel. Delete rows 1:2, click cell A1, and then use   the keyboard shortcut to run the macro to test that Quarterly Operations Report displays as the subtitle of the   report.

Insert a footer with the file   name in the left section, and then display the worksheet in Print Preview to   verify that the worksheet is centered horizontally. Display the file   properties. As the Tags, type operations department report and as the Subject, type your   course name and section number. Under Related People, be sure that your name   displays as Author. Save your workbook.

On the Developer tab, in the   Code group, click Macros. Select your Operations_Header macro, and then click   Edit. Select and Copy all of the code. Close and Return to Microsoft Excel.   In the sheet tab area, click New sheet to insert a new worksheet.
