Colo aka Masaru - one of the Microsoft MVP for Excel
WEB SITE
My name is Masaru Kaji and I am from Kobe, Japan. I was born on 9th Jan 197x. I'm a computer system administrator for an equipment manufacturer. My line is operation AS400 server and Windows2000 server. I sometimes write VBA code for the company. It was in March 2000, that I first met Microsoft Excel. In my job, my superior forced me into creating something like an address book. At that time, my main machine was not a personal computer but a word processor. And I had not used a personal computer for about 10 years. Until then also I had never used any spreadsheet software.. The first time I used Excel, I remember thinking 'Wow! What a cool application it is!, If I were able to use it as I want, it makes my job easier.'
Back to the subject about my work, I was making some easy tables that has similar data, but it made me bored because I have to input same thing again and again. I am not a patient character. :) When I was doing something with Excel, a menu named 'Record New Macro' was found, and by using this menu, I discovered unexpectedly that my operation was recorded.
I could imagine the function from the meaning of a word in the code generated automatically somehow, so I made some macros for my job without installing VBA help. In fact I did NOT know how to see Help file.
Gradually, I had come to want to do that was not possible to do in a 'Record New Macro' alone and I determined installing a VBA help file. (I said goodbye to my slow to act.) But the descriptions written in Help file were too difficult for me to understand. Then, in order to solve the question, which I cannot understand by Help, I posted my question to Japanese QA site on www.
And as you know, I'm not good at English, so in order to learn English and to learn technical terms, I begun to post to MrExcel. I am still learning... :)
In 2004, I was nominate as a Microsoft Excel MVP, and in 2005, fortunately I was re-nominated again.
