Välkomnande till Kontorsspetsar och i denna posta oss ska lärer om några av särdragen, spetsarna och tricken av Microsoft Office 2007 Excel täcker som vi missa eller inte besvärar vanligt för att använda, utan även att veta hur välgörande de kan vara. Är här något användbart pekar som bestämt annonser på till ditt överträffa expertis. Rätten från den väljande cellen utformar till att gruppera som är utvalt, ror. Låter för att få startat!!

#1 som snabbt slår in text

Lång handstil dömer i en cell fungerar precis inte med Excel. Eventuellt som det gjordes inte för det. Det endera skuggar den nästa cellen eller får drygt gömt vid annat. Emellertid stillar vi behov det ibland. Det bäst alternativet är att ge en sjal upp till den, så cellen utvidgar storleksanpassar in och passformar texten inom den. Det undviker några förvirring och uppehällen tingfrikänden.

• Välj en text som har mer text.
• I hemmet BandFinna justeringen delar upp och söker efter symbolen som har 2 boxas.
• På att sväva över den ska du får en hjälpspets för inpackning, klickar precis den.

Varna: Inpackning upp ska text gör storleksanpassa av cellen större och skjuter nedanföra bakomliggande celler.

Att använda #2 färgar bommar för till uttryckligt värderar av numeriska data

Text borrar, om de cant uttryckligt i olikt bildar. Vi använder kartlägger och bommar för grafer till uttryckligt vårt värderar varför inte bruk den samma tekniken i individceller.

Var kan du använda det? Lets say for an example, You don’t want to use chart or putting a chart is not appropriate but still you want to give similar kind of effect like the one I gave in in the image . 10 gets more colored area then 8 or 7. Pretty cool huh ?

• Select the cells
• Now in Home , look for Styles
• In that click on Conditional Formatting.
• This gives you more options than above. You can even add images, icon sets, color bars and much more.

#3 Choosing cell styles to make things clear

Adding images express more right how about adding styles for things like comment, links, warning, links and other things!!! You might be thinking why make excel sheet more calculated and cluttered but let’s take a situation.

You have an excel file where you have added lot of comments, there are lot of calculative columns and explanations. Now If I had to analyze it without you being you being there, How much time I would take to find which is what ? Probably a lot more if you were there or if something can tell me which is what Right!!!

A small example

#4 Go to Redefined

Jumping from one part to another is difficult with so many elements in excel. We just don’t want to move from one line to another but possibly from one comment to another.

Excel has an Enhanced version of Go To.

• Use the hot key CTRL + G or On Home , Click on last menu item, Find and Replace. You will fine the Go To
• This Go To gives use options to Comments, Constants, Formulas and more.

#5 Tracing formulas and their source

Sometimes it becomes hard to find cells which are used to calculate the sum. You know the cell where you calculate the output but if you find the source you need to click on it.

Now when its time to presentations its really not a good idea to find by clicking on every cell and then finding where things are. Excel gives you a quick button which highlights the cells used and with arrows pointing towards it.!!!

• Go to Formula Tab on the ribbon
• Select Formula Editing which is second from last
• Look for Trace Precedents and Trace Dependents.
• Select any formula cell and click on this and It will point to correct cells.

#6 Reveal all formulas in one click

This is a quick tip, If you want to see all the formulas used any where in the excel .

• Select the sheets first in case you have formulas in different sheets.
• Now go to Formula Section and Under Formula auditing
• Click on Show Formulas

That’s all , It will unscramble all the formulas exactly it was at the time of editing it.

#7 Watching Cell changes live

Now lets take an example you are summing up some of the things and You need to know At Run how much is the value changed in summing up cells to when you increment or decrement values. If you are a programmer probably you know what is a Watch.

You can do it in very simple way. Excel provides you with facility to watch the value of anything at run time but adding it to Watch Box.

• In the formula section under Formula auditing look for Watch Window
• Click on it and add watch by selecting individual or range of cells.

#8 Breaking Text into multiple cells

Lets take a situation where you have long text in a cell which comprises of name ( both first and last ) and you want to split it into 2 columns. You can do it manually but that’s not feasible in case of huge data. Excel allows you to do through Text to Columns options it if you can tell it the separator. easy

• Go to Data Tab in the ribbon and look for Data Tools
• Select your cells and click on Text To Columns
• There are some steps where you need to tell the separator and others.

#9 Grouping an Un-grouping rows : Stop Scrolling

In case you have huge amount of data and say you want to check on some data which is right at top of the sheet and another which is in middle. But you have lot of data in between which you have to scroll.

This is really a scenario where your valuable time is used up. Now what if you can just select those not required cells and hide it in a click under a group and on other click you get them back. This way you save the scrolling time and traverse fast. Moreover you get the advantage of grouping them in different sections too.

• Go to Data Tab on Ribbon
• Check the last section named as Outline.
