VBA - First Things First

Before you can call yourself an Excel programmer, you must go through the initiation rites. That means you need to make a small change so Excel will display a new tab at the top of the screen: Developer.

When you click the Developer tab, the Ribbon displays information that is of interest to programmers (that’s you!). Figure 2-1 shows how the Ribbon looks when the Developer tab is selected.

The Developer tab is normally hidden, but it’s easy to unhide.

The Developer tab is not visible when you first open Excel; you need to tell Excel to show it. Getting Excel to display the Developer tab is easy (and you only have to do it one time). The procedure varies, though, depending on which version of Excel you use.
