Kindly requesting any workout, tutorial, book, or suggestions. I want to know how to proceed to get knowledge to know ansys Macro and to make the simulations I desire.
The best way I used to learn a macro is not from tutorials.
I manually setup the model and analysis and write the log file and read what has happened in the back. Once you have the log files edit with variable to your requirement and learn the unknown commands and make it as ASCII file and use the 'read input from' to check if its running or not.
You could use this reverse process to really learn macros and perform some parametric analysis very quickly. Note you can also make a bundle of macros to make it more efficient
Have fun
Lots of material from the web. For example

hi,
use APDL when you want to do analysis with different available options in GUI, or you want to repeat a simple analysis. so you can use APDL that don't require to model from first level until results, or you want to define parameters such as material properties (modulus elasticity) , you can change APDL (*SET) to (*ASK). therefore, when you run this APDL, at the first time ask you material properties (E and ...) and you can run same model with same simulation and condition , that analyzed and you can see the results.
when i want to learn about APDL, I model the problem and analysis and write the log file and read what has happened in the back. Once you have the log files edit with variable to your requirement and learn the unknown commands and make it as ASCII file and use the 'read input from' to check if its running or not.
but there are several tutorials about learning APDL for example:
http://mostreal.sk/html/prog_55/g-apdl/AS4.htm
if you don't find your certain needs, you can send your analysis and describe your model or your request to help you.
Of course, if you want to learn by example,i recommend you to read this pdf file.
