Are FOR loops strong with your VBA code?
I personally favor FOR loops over While loops. I learned about loops in 1996 (in BASIC language). Any powerful application or program I have built ever since has its share of FOR loops. They are vital for doing awesome things with computers.
What about you? Do you use FOR loops often? When do you use them? What are your favorite implementations. Please share your tips & thoughts in the comments area.
Remember: Email me at chandoo.d@gmail.com once you finish the task mentioned in the podcast to get your FOR loops example workbook.

In 2013 you can also add to the QAT the hidden command "Toggle Full Screen View".
Instead of using the shortcut CTRL+F1, I prefer just to double-click one of the tab names (ie double-click the "Home" text on the Home tab) to enable the Ribbon Outline view. To return to the normal Ribbon state, just double-click your mouse again!
press Ctrl+Shift+F1, you will get a full screen
Instead of Ctrl + F1, I use Ctrl + Shift + F1 (Excel 2016)
Alt W E sequence for full screen
