Microsoft Visual Basic for Applications (VBA)

The Microsoft Office suite of applications (Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and Access) allows users to customize views or output, but the processing performed by the applications cannot be changed. However, Microsoft provides an interface in which the user can create customized processing. The language used for this customized processing is based on a computer programming language called Visual Basic. The Microsoft programming environment, called Visual Basic for Applications, has a special format and syntax that must be followed in order for the computer to properly perform the work. This VTC course describes the reserved keywords, structures, and language aspects that a user would need to know in order to create customized processing for Microsoft Office applications.
