VBA – A Quick Review
Your Name Goes Here
A VBA module consists of one or more __________. A procedure begins and ends with
the ___ and _______ statements, respectively. _______ procedures are executed at any
time. _____ procedures are executed only when a designated event occurs.
VBA accomplishes its tasks by manipulating _______. Objects contain other objects; for
example, the workbook object contains the _________ object which in turn contains the
range object. The objects are arranged in a hierarchy known as the _____ ______ _____.
Other applications in Microsoft Office have their own object models. A __________ is a
group of similar objects within the object model.
A period is used to separate (qualify) an object within the object model. For example,
Workbooks(“January.xls”).Worksheets(“Sheet1”).Range(“Expenses”) refers to the range
called ________ in the worksheet ______ in the _______ workbook. If you omit a qualifier,
Excel refers to the active object; e.g., Worksheets (“Sheet1”).Range(“Expenses”) is
equivalent to the preceding statement provided you had selected the _______ ________ from
the collection of open workbooks.
Objects have __________ that describe attributes (or settings) of the object; for example,
ActiveCell.Value = 10 sets the _____ property of the __________ object. The Value
property is the default property of the ActiveCell object and thus it can be omitted; i.e.,
ActiveCell = 10 is equivalent to the previous statement. You can also set variables to the
value of a property; for example, intNumber = ActiveCell.Value stores the value of the
active cell into the variable intNumber.
Objects also have _______ (actions) that are performed on an object. The statement
ActiveSheet.Protect applies the _______ method to the ___________ object. In similar
fashion, Sheets(“Expense Summary”).Select applies the ______ method to the Expense
Summary worksheet in the worksheets __________.
