- 3. What is Excel ? Excel 2013 is a spreadsheet program that allows you to store, organize, and analyze information. It features calculation, graphing tools, pivot tables, and a macro programming language called Visual Basic for Applications.
- 4. The Excel Cell ▶ Every worksheet is made up of thousands of rectangles, which are called cells. ▶ A cell is the intersection of a row and a column. ▶ Columns are identified by letters (A, B, C), while rows are identified by numbers (1, 2, 3). ▶ Each cell has its own name—or cell address—based on its column and row.
- 5. Cell Content ▶ Cell can contain different types of content, including text, formatting, formulas and functions. ▶Text: Cells can contain text, such as letters, numbers, and dates. ▶Formatting: Formatting attributes can change the way letters, numbers, and dates are displayed. ▶Formulas and Functions: Cells can contain formulas and functions that calculate cell values.
- 6. Worksheet Views ▶ Excel 2013 has a variety of viewing options. ▶ You can choose to view any workbook in Normal view, Page Layout view, or Page Break view. ▶ To change worksheet views, locate and select the desired worksheet view command in the bottom-right corner of the Excel window.

Simple Formulas ▶ Excel uses standard operators for formula such as plus, minus multiplication, division, exponents. ▶ Cell Reference: Creating simple formulas in Excel manually, you will use cell addresses to create a formula. This is known as making a cell reference. ▶ By combining a mathematical operator with cell references, a variety of simple formulas can be created.

- 11. Creating Formulas ▶ Start Insert Function Tool on cell where we want the total: ▶ Select the SUM function: ▶ Select the first cell of the set to add in the first box on the sum function screen. ▶ Enter subsequent cell values in each box on the sum dialog ▶ Select them individually, or drag the entire range(A1:A5) ▶ Press OK for Total cell
- 12. Relative and Absolute Cell References ▶ There are two types of cell references: Relative and Absolute. ▶ Relative references: change when a formula is copied to another cell. ▶ Example: Copy the formula =A1+B1 from row 1 to row 2, the formula will become =A2+B2 ▶ Absolute References: Absolute references do not change when copied or filled. ▶ An absolute reference is designated in a formula by the addition of a dollar sign ($).
- 13. Track Changes In Track Changes feature, every cell you edit will be highlighted with a unique border and indicator. To turn on Track Changes: From the Review tab, click the Track Changes command, then select Highlight Changes from the drop-down menu. The dialog box will appear, click OK to save your workbook. Track Changes will be turned on. A triangle and border color will appear in any cell you edit.
- 14. Comments Sometimes you may want to add a comment to provide feedback instead of editing the contents of a cell. To add a comment: Select the cell where you want the comment to appear From the Review tab, click the New Comment command. A comment box will appear. Type your comment, then click anywhere outside the box to close the comment. The comment will be added to the cell.
- 15. Macro What is Macro? A macro is an action or a set of actions that you can run as many times as you want. If you have tasks in Microsoft Excel that you do repeatedly, you can record a macro to automate those tasks. When you create a macro, you are recording your mouse clicks and keystrokes. After you create a macro, you can edit it to make minor changes to the way it works.
- 16. Macro Continued ▶ Before recording the Macro make sure Developer tab is visible on ribbon. ▶ By default, the Developer tab is not visible, so do the following: Click the File tab, click Options and then click the Customize Ribbon category. Under Customize the Ribbon, in the Main Tabs list, click Developer, and then click OK. The developer tab will be visible.
- 17. Macro (Continued) ▶ Record Macro: In the developer tab click Record Micro. Enter the Macro name in Macro name box, shortcut key in shortcut key box and description in description box, click OK to start recording. Perform the actions you want to automate, such as filling the data. When you are done, on developer tab click on Stop Recording.
- 18. Sorting ▶You can quickly reorganize a worksheet by sorting your data. ▶Types of Sorting: Sort Sheet: Organizes all of the data in your worksheet by one column. Sort Range: sorts the data in a range of cells, which can be helpful when working with a sheet that contains several tables.
- 19. Sorting ▶ To sort a Sheet Select a cell in the column you want to sort by. Select the Data tab on the Ribbon, then click the Ascending command or the Descending command. The worksheet will be sorted by the selected column. ▶ To sort a Range: Select the cell range you want to sort. Select the Data tab on the Ribbon, then click the Sort command. The Sort dialog box will appear. Choose the column you want to sort by. Decide the sorting order and then click OK. The cell range will be sorted by the selected column.
