Excel Office Scripts are scripts that can be used to automate tasks in Microsoft Excel. They are written in JavaScript and can be used to perform a wide range of tasks, such as formatting cells, inserting data, and creating charts and graphs. Office Scripts can be run from within Excel or from the Excel Web App, and they can be triggered to run automatically or manually.
To use Office Scripts, you first need to enable the Office Scripts feature in Excel. You can then create a new script by clicking the "Scripts" button in the "Data" tab of the Excel ribbon. This will open the Office Scripts pane, where you can create, edit, and run scripts.
There are many resources available online to help you learn how to use Office Scripts, including Microsoft's official documentation and various tutorials and code examples. You can also find a variety of third-party tools and libraries that can help you create more advanced scripts and automate more complex tasks in Excel.
