About this course

Our Word VBA Introduction is designed for users who know Microsoft Word very well but who have no knowledge of VBA programming. It familiarises users with essential Visual Basic syntax and programming techniques and introduces them to the Microsoft Word object model. By the end of the training, delegates will know how to write VBA macros from scratch; as opposed to relying on the Macro Recorder.
