Automate your Excel spreadsheets

Imagine all the time you would save

Stop wasting time clicking commands manually in Excel! Do you realize how much time you and your staff take clicking commands in your spreadsheet? Highlight a range of cells, copy, paste, insert sum, reformat, etc.

Any command that you can perform in Excel can be duplicated in the Visual Basic for Applications macro language (the programming language to create macros in all Microsoft Office applications).

Eliminate repetitive tasks and human errors

The clicking and typing of Excel commands can add up to hours to produce a report or chart; all that time can be recovered with macros. Your staff can create reports more efficiently, you can analyze your data much faster. Data processing and reporting becomes consistent and it eliminates human errors.

Your staff will unquestionably appreciate the simplification of their work in Excel spreadsheets with the use of macros.

Experience remarkable time and money savings

We have successfully helped organizations save a remarkable amount of time and money in automating their financial spreadsheets through customized Excel VBA macros.

The ratio of time saved is incredible. All of our macro projects have reduced repetitive Excel tasks from hours to seconds. Typically, spreadsheet production goes down from 2 hours to 20 seconds. Advanced reports that used to take 3 hours daily to produce (15 hours per week for a weekly report) now take 15 minutes per week. Imagine: you can wipe out 2 hours daily per employee on the performance of repetitive Excel tasks.

Macros pay for themselves many times over

We always show our clients how our fee comes out of a portion of the savings experienced from using the macros that we deliver. Virtually, your organization doesn't even need to budget additional funds to use the services of Stemar Consulting.

The power of Excel VBA macros

Excel macros are so powerful, they can automate everything in the blink of an eye:

  • Automate tasks in your existing financial spreadsheet without having to redesign it.
  • Share data among spreadsheets automatically (not manually!)
  • Import XLS, CSV, or TXT files and export filtered and sorted data to a XLS, CSV, or TXT file instantly.
  • Prepare and export data automatically to the specifications of another software, then import the data into that software for efficient results.
  • Apply complicated formatting to cells from multiple worksheets by clicking one custom button.
  • Cut, copy, paste, and fill cells anywhere on any open workbook repetitively, all in one button click.
  • Fetch parts of multiple workbooks to consolidate data in one workbook in a few seconds.
  • Format reports and charts for printing perfectly without errors, wasted time, and wasted paper.
  • Print multiple worksheets automatically all at once with customized print settings for each sheet.
  • Produce fast HTML output of tables, reports, and charts to be viewed in a web browser.
  • Optimize data sources for MS Word mail merges.
  • Email your reports to a list of recipients automatically one or many at a time.
  • Create any type of charts with lightning speed.

There are tons more scenarios that would save you lots of time.

Upgrading Excel can be costly

Consider an open source solution

If you are using a previous version of Excel and you are worried about the cost of upgrading or acquiring additional licenses, consider switching to an open source solution.
