Office 2010 – myitlab:grader – Instructions GO! Excel Chapter 9 - EOC project Name Tag Macros Project Description: In this project, you will create two macros in the workbook that each set a specific print area to prepare for printing name tags. One macro will have a keyboard shortcut associated with it, and the other will run from a command button. You will copy the finalized macro code into a blank sheet in the workbook, and then save the macro-enabled workbook in the Excel Workbook (.xlsx) format. Instructions: For the purpose of grading the project you are required to perform the following tasks: Step Instructions Points Possible 1 Start Excel. Download, save, and open the Excel macro-enabled workbook named GO_e09_Grader_EOC.xlsm. Ensure that the Developer tab is enabled. If necessary, click the Enable Content button in the Security message bar. 0 2 With cell A1 selected, begin to record a macro. Name the macro as TreeNameTag and assign CTRL+n as the Shortcut key. Do not close the Macro dialog box. 8 3 Store the macro in this workbook, and enter the text Macro for name tags as the description. Close the dialog box. While recording the macro, be sure to follow the steps exactly as specified. Do not switch between windows or worksheets in between steps. 8 4 In Sheet 1, in recording mode, select the range B4:F15. 8 5 Set the print area to print this range only, and then stop recording the macro. Print preview the name tag. Clear the print area from B4:F15. Return to cell A1 and then press CTRL+n to run the macro and ensure that the name tag print previews as expected. 8 6 In the Microsoft Visual Basic for Applications window, delete any empty comment lines or blank lines in the code, and then copy the entire TreeNameTag macro including the Sub statement to the End Sub statement. Paste the code into cell A1 of Sheet2. The VBA code should appear in cells A1:A7 when pasted. 12 7 In Sheet1, draw a command button from cells I17:K18. Using the Properties pane, set the name of the button to LeafNameTag, the height to 23.25, and the width to 150. Set the caption to Print Leaf Name Tag. 10 8 From the Microsoft Visual Basic for Applications window, copy the five lines of the TreeNameTag macro between Sub statement and the End Sub statement. From Excel, view the code for the Print Leaf Name Tag button. In the Microsoft Visual Basic for Applications window, click the General down arrow and then click LeafNameTag. 7 9 Immediately below the Private Sub LeafNameTag_Click() statement, paste the five lines of copied code. Replace the comment text TreeNameTag Macro with LeafNameTag Command Button. 8 10 Replace the comment text Macro for name tags with Prints Leaf Name Tag. Delete the entire comment line containing Keyboard Shortcut: Ctrl + n (including the comment character). Be sure to delete any remaining empty comment lines or blank lines in the code. 8 11 In the Range statement, modify the range as "H4:L15". In the following line that sets the print area, modify the range as "$H$4:$L$15". Return to Excel. Deselect Design Mode for the button. Click the Print Leaf Name Tag button to run the macro. Ensure that the name tag print previews as expected. 11 12 From the Microsoft Visual Basic for Applications window, copy the entire LeafNameTag macro from the Sub statement to the End Sub statement inclusive (six lines). Paste the code into cell A12 of Sheet2 in this workbook (the VBA code will appear in cells A12:A17 when pasted). In Sheet1, clear the print area from H4:L15 and select cell A1. Test the two macros to be sure that they work as expected. 12 13 Save the macro-enabled workbook as an Excel workbook, using the same file name. Click Yes to save it as a macro-free workbook. Close the workbook. Exit Excel. Submit the GO_e09_Grader_EOC.xlsx workbook as directed. 0 Total Points 100 Updated on: 12/28/2010 1 E_CH09_GOCOMP_EOC_Instructions.docx

Paper For Above instruction

The Office 2010 Myitlabgrader project focusing on creating and managing macros within an Excel workbook provides a comprehensive exercise in automating print areas for name tags. This task requires mastery of macro recording, editing VBA code, assigning macros to buttons, and managing print settings—all essential skills for advanced Excel users seeking to streamline repetitive tasks. The process begins with preparing the macro environment, including enabling the Developer tab, ensuring security settings permit macro execution, and opening the designated workbook, "GO_e09_Grader_EOC.xlsm," a macro-enabled file tailored for this project (Microsoft, 2010).

The first phase involves recording a macro named "TreeNameTag" with the shortcut key CTRL+n. This macro captures a specific cell range, B4:F15, which corresponds to a name tag layout, and sets this range as the print area. After saving and testing the macro with a print preview, the next step requires editing the VBA code. This involves opening the Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) editor, removing superfluous comments or blank lines, and copying the macro code into a new sheet (Sheet2) for documentation purposes. Pasting the code into cells A1:A7 ensures that the code is stored within the worksheet for reference or further editing (Ogilvie, 2014).

Subsequently, a command button labeled "Print Leaf Name Tag" is drawn on Sheet 1 within the specified cell range (I17:K18). Using the Properties pane, the button is customized with specific dimensions, a meaningful caption, and a name ("LeafNameTag"). This button serves as an interactive way to execute the macro without using keyboard shortcuts (Zeid, 2018). The macro code is assigned to this button by copying the existing "TreeNameTag" code, replacing the comments accordingly, and modifying the range references to H4:L15 to accommodate a different section of the worksheet (Dungan et al., 2013).

The updated macro is linked to the button, which, upon clicking, triggers the print preview of the name tags within the specified range. Additional VBA editing ensures that the macro code is stored in the designated location (cells A12:A17 of Sheet2), and the print area in Sheet1 is cleared to avoid conflicts. Final testing involves confirming that both macros—running via shortcut and button—perform accurately, setting the print area and presenting the correct print preview layout. The project concludes with saving the workbook, confirming macro functionality, and submitting the file for grading (Jelen, 2015).
