Call a custom Script from Excel

 

It is quite common that we receive the data in Excel and several times we have to remove unwanted characters from columns or modify the data as per the requirement. To avoid manual fixes of these kind of requirements, we may use Macro to automate the process which not only increase productivity but also avoid manual errors. We can easily create Macro to quickly fix it. Here are the steps to create Macro and run it.

  • Open Excel
  • Goto View tab on Main menu

  • Click on 'View Macros'. This should open a Macro popup.
  • Enter Macro Name and click on + icon.
  • Clicking on + icon should open Macro Coding screen(as shown below).
  • Add your code in the function.
  • Click on Save icon to save the file with Macro.
  • Click on Run icon to run the Macro code.
  • The above code should remove additional line breaks from columns.
Reference Code(to remove line breaks from columns):
Sub MyCustomMacro()
Dim MyRange As Range
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Application.Calculation = xlCalculationManual

For Each MyRange In ActiveSheet.UsedRange
If 0 < InStr(MyRange, Chr(10)) Then
MyRange = Replace(MyRange, Chr(10), "")
End If
Next

Application.ScreenUpdating = True
Application.Calculation = xlCalculationAutomatic
End Sub

AJAX Progrraming

Ajax , shorthand for Asynchronous JavaScript and XML , is a web development technique for creating interactive web applications. The intent is to make web pages feel more responsive by exchanging small amounts of data with the server behind the scenes, so that the entire web page does not have to be reloaded each time the user requests a change. This is meant to increase the web page's interactivity, speed, and usability. The Ajax technique uses a combination of: XHTML (or HTML) and CSS, for marking up and styling information. The DOM accessed with a client-side scripting language, especially JavaScript and JScript, to dynamically display and interact with the information presented. The XMLHttpRequest object is used to exchange data asynchronously with the web server. In some Ajax frameworks and in certain situations, an IFrame object is used instead of the XMLHttpRequest object to exchange data with the web server, and in other implementations, dynamically added tags may be used.
