Default macros

There are two main ways:
1) Record a macro, which Excel will automatically generate macro code for
the actions you have carried out during the record.
2) Manually type/edit the macros

For (1), from the tools menu, choose macro, then record macro. Then do what
you want to record, click the stop button when finish.

Macros are store in modules. You can view them in the VBA Editor. From the
Tools menu, choose macro, then "Visual Basic Editor". You will be switched to
the VB Editor. You may need some time to explore the features of this
development environment.

For (2), as mentioned above, you can edit the macros in the VB Environment.

I highly recommend you to learn from a book, such as a Microsoft Press one.
The Step by Step series is quite good. (There are other alternatives.) There
are lessons which brings you through the key features of Excel VBA. Really
straight forward and fun.
