AI VBA & Apps Script generator
GPTExcel's script generator writes spreadsheet automation code from a plain-English description: VBA macros for Excel, Apps Script for Google Sheets, LibreOffice Basic, Airtable scripts, and Python. It can also explain what an existing script does or refactor it.
How it works
From plain English to a working macro
- 1
Choose the script language
Pick VBA for Excel, Apps Script for Google Sheets, LibreOffice Basic, Airtable Script, or Python.
- 2
Describe the automation
Explain what should happen in plain English, e.g. “Loop through every sheet and delete empty rows”.
- 3
Generate the script
GPTExcel returns the complete script in a copyable code block with notes on how it works and anything to set up.
- 4
Paste it into your editor and run
Paste VBA into the Visual Basic Editor (Alt+F11) in Excel, or Apps Script into Extensions › Apps Script in Google Sheets. Use Explain or Optimize on scripts you already have.
Example
One prompt, one result
A typical request and the kind of answer the Scripts tool returns. AI output varies, so check it against your own data before you rely on it.
Loop through every sheet and delete empty rows
Result
Here's a VBA macro that removes every completely empty row from each worksheet in the workbook.
Sub DeleteEmptyRowsInAllSheets()
Dim ws As Worksheet
Dim lastRow As Long, r As Long
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
For Each ws In ThisWorkbook.Worksheets
lastRow = ws.UsedRange.Row + ws.UsedRange.Rows.Count - 1
For r = lastRow To 1 Step -1
If Application.WorksheetFunction.CountA(ws.Rows(r)) = 0 Then
ws.Rows(r).Delete
End If
Next r
Next ws
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub- Rows are checked from the bottom up so deleting one doesn't skip the next
CountAtreats a row as empty only when no cell in it has a value- Save the workbook as .xlsm to keep the macro, and keep a backup: deleted rows can't be undone
