The first couple of steps are the same but the rest change depending on what I am trying to achieve. Those of us who encounter such scenarios when using Excel, turn to Macros. The time invested in recording or writing these macros is a fraction of what we save using them. So why don't we write browser macros? Or was it that everyone else was doing it and I was too late in the game? So I decided to speak to some of my co-workers who are big on efficiency through automation .  What I found was not surpri...
