Web-based spreadsheet Zoho Sheet yesterday unveiled macro recording and playback, bringing it one major step closer to matching Excel’s most important features. As of April, Zoho Sheet could already run Visual Basic macros, but now it’s possible to record and play them with no VB programming required. Here’s the process in a nutshell:
- From the “Macros” menu, select “Record Macro.”
- In the “Create Macro” dialog box, name the new macro, and then click “Start Recording.”
- On the spreadsheet, perform all the actions to be recorded in the new macro. “Macro Recording in progress” will appear in the menu bar.
- After performing the final task, click “Stop Recording” from the menu bar.
Pretty simple, eh? To learn more about Zoho Sheet macros, check out the video. In the meantime, hit the Comments and let us know if this new addition will prompt you to give Zoho Sheet a try, switch to Zoho Sheet from Google Docs, or even switch to Zoho Sheet from Excel! Nah, you don’t have the guts for that. Do you? Oh, also, Zoho Sheet remains free, which I continue to find amazing.
