The file is actually not in database format and I am
trying to automate several things in the workbook which
will be used by others. Thanks for the suggestions.

A database in Excel is a glorified list. You don't
really need an extensive
knowledge of macros to enter a list in an Excel
worksheet. But if you want
to add automated functionality to it, then of course, you
need macros.
Check out your local book store. John Walkenbach's books
("Power
Programming...") are widely available and highly regarded.
