New projects…

I have put the back up thing on hold.  Apparently, there are a lot of backup programs, blah blah.  It can wait.  I have instead focused on excel scripts creating new sheets, naming, clearing data, adding data, etc…

And, I have started looking into VBA code for writing macros for excel, to use at work.  The majority of the world is still using windows based computers.  Kind of a pain having to learn two different programing languages at the same time, but I guess it will pay off in the long run.

I have to admit applescript does seem to come a little more natural.  Seems to flow just a little better. VBA is a little more cryptic, at least so it seems right now.

A little VBA code to “null” columns of data to a zero point worked out nicely and saves me about 5 minutes per date package.  I will post the code tomorrow, if I can remember to.  I will create a VBA category and place this post in it as well.

I am going to keep plugging along learning what I can and keep yo up to date with the progress.
