Here's a cool, handy macro that will auto-generate a Table of Contents for any Excel file.
Steps remains the same as in any macro (Alt F11 to start VBA, Insert module, paste the code, save, File -> Return to Excel, then Alt F8, and Run). That's a mouthful, but you know what to do.

When dealing with dates in VB.NET, it's a good idea not to perform manual checks or calculations, which may be inaccurate depending on the quality of the code. Instead, it's advisable to rely on the functionality of classes provided by .NET.

A constant is a meaningful name that takes the place of a number or string that does not change. Constants store values that, as the name implies, remain the same throughout the execution of an application. You can greatly improve the readability of your code and make it easier to maintain by using...

When you decide to use a variable, you are in fact asking the computer to use a certain amount of space to hold that variable. Since different variables will be used for different purposes, you should specify the kind of variable you intend to use, then the computer will figure out how much space...

While it has become common practice for developers to manipulate VB.NET date/time values manually, it's never a good idea because the result is rarely a correct date/time value. Whenever you try to use your own calculation routines for adding and subtracting date/time values, you risk generating a...
