I am trying to write a rule using VBA that will establish the worksheet
direction in excel as left to right. I have found the rule:
Application.DefaultSheetDirection=xlLTR

What I can't figure out is how to use VBA to do this. I have got the
Developer tab on the ribbon when I open excel, but at this point I am lost as
to what to do next.

In other words I need some real basic directions in terms of Go to
Developer, click on Visual Basic, click on Insert (or whatever) etc. etc. I
have tried using the help and how to and guess I just don't get it.

Thanks..........someone
