Those are only a few benefits of learning in English.
Automation of work in MS Excel with VBA begins with a short introduction to VBA environment, but ends in an intermediate level. You will learn how VBA editor works, how to record macros, edit code – but also how code is built and how to optimize it, how to define variables, how VBA syntax looks like – constructions, conditional statements, loops and dialog boxes.
