Google Search’s auto-completion feature sometimes seems like magic. When you type a few words, Google automatically suggests relevant search queries. It’s as if Google is reading your thoughts, or at least trying to read them. Search predictions appear on the Google homepage, in the Chrome address bar, in the Google application for iOS and Android, and everywhere you have the Google search box.

But what if Google suddenly stops making predictions? What if Google doesn’t automatically respond to your queries? Many Chrome users often complain about this problem. When they’re typing something to search for, they end up looking at the search bar and waiting for it to display suggestions.

To automate a repetitive task, you can record a macro using the Macro Recorder in Microsoft Excel. Imagine that you have data in random formats and you want to apply a single format to all that data. A macro can do this for you. You can record a macro in any format you want and play it back later when you need it.

When you record a macro, the Macro Recorder records all the steps in the Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) code. These steps may include entering text or numbers, clicking cells or commands on the tape or menus, formatting cells, rows, or columns, or even importing data from an external source, such as Microsoft Access. Visual Basic Application (VBA) is a subset of the powerful Visual Basic programming language and is included in most Office applications. While VBA gives you the ability to automate processes within and between Office applications, you don’t need to know VBA code or computer programming if the recorder macro does what you want it to do. read more
