Microsoft Excel 2010 Tutorial
Excel is a spreadsheet program in the Microsoft Office system. You can use Excel to create and format workbooks (a collection of
spreadsheets) in order to analyze data and make more informed business decisions. Specifically, you can use Excel to track data, build
models for analyzing data, write formulas to perform calculations on that data, pivot the data in numerous ways, and present data in a variety
of professional looking charts.
The Ribbon
Understanding the Ribbon is a great way to help understand the changes between Microsoft 2003 to Microsoft 2010. The ribbon holds all of
the information in previous versions of Microsoft Office in a more visual stream line manner through a series of tabs that include an immense
variety of program features.
Home Tab
This is the most used tab; it incorporates all text and cell formatting features such as font and paragraph changes. The Home Tab also
includes basic spreadsheet formatting elements such as text wrap, merging cells and cell style.
Insert Tab
This tab allows you to insert a variety of items into a document from pictures, clip art, and headers and footers.
Page Layout Tab
This tab has commands to adjust page such as margins, orientation and themes.

2
Formulas Tab
This tab has commands to use when creating Formulas. This tab holds an immense function library which can assist when creating any
formula or function in your spreadsheet.
Data Tab
This tab allows you to modifying worksheets with large amounts of data by sorting and filtering as well as analyzing and grouping data.
Review Tab
This tab allows you to correct spelling and grammar issues as well as set up security protections. It also provides the track changes and
notes feature providing the ability to make notes and changes someone’s document.
View Tab
This tab allows you to change the view of your document including freezing or splitting panes, viewing gridlines and hide cells.

NOTES: Excel replaces existing data in the paste area when you cut and paste cells to move them.
When you copy cells, cell references are automatically adjusted. If the selected copy or paste area
includes hidden cells, Excel also copies the hidden cells. You may need to temporarily unhide cells that
you don't want to include when you copy information.
Move/Copy Cells with Mouse
1. Select the cells or a range of cells that you want to move or copy.
2. To move a cell or range of cells, point to the border of the selection. When the pointer becomes a
move pointer , drag the cell or range of cells to another location.
Column Width and Row Height
On a worksheet, you can specify a column width of 0 to 255 and a row height of 0 to 409. This value
represents the number of characters that can be displayed in a cell that is formatted with the standard
font. The default column width is 8.43 characters and the default row
height is 12.75 points. If a column/row has a width of 0, it is hidden.
Set Column/Row Width/Height
1. Select the column(s) or row(s) that you want to change.
2. On the Home tab, in the Cells group, click Format.
3. Under Cell Size, click Column Width or Row Height.

2. Double-click any boundary between two column/row
headings.
3. All Columns/Rows in the entire worksheet will be
changed to the new size
NOTE: At times, a cell might display #####. This can occur when the cell contains a number or a date
that exceeds the width of the cell so it cannot display all the characters that its format requires. To see
the entire contents of the cell with its current format, you must increase the width of the column.

6
Set Column/Row Width/Height with Mouse
To change the width of one column/row
1. Place you cursor on the line between two rows or columns.
2. A symbol that looks like a lower case t with arrows on the horizontal
line will appear
3. Drag the boundary on the right side of the column/row heading until the
column/row is the width that you want.
To change the width of multiple columns/rows
1. Select the columns/rows that you want to change
2. Drag a boundary to the right of a selected column/row heading.
3. All selected columns/rows will become a different size.
To change the width of columns/rows to fit the contents in the cells
1. Select the column(s) or row(s) that you want to change
2. Double-click the boundary to the right of a selected column/row heading.
3. The Column/Row will automatically be size to the length/height of the longest/tallest text.
Merge or Split Cells
When you merge two or more adjacent horizontal or vertical cells the cells become one larger cell that is
displayed across multiple columns or rows. When you merge multiple cells, the contents of only one cell
appear in the merged cell.
Merge and Center Cells
1. Select two or more adjacent cells that you want to merge.
2. On the Home tab, in the Alignment group, click Merge and Center.
3. The cells will be merged in a row or column, and the cell contents will be centered in the merged cell.

2. To split the merged cell, click Merge and Center . The cells will split
and the contents of the merged cell will appear in the upper-left cell of the range of split cells.
Automatically Fill Data
To quickly fill in several types of data series, you can select cells and drag the fill handle . To use
the fill handle, you select the cells that you want to use as a basis for filling additional cells, and then drag
the fill handle across or down the cells that you want to fill.
1. Select the cell that contains the formula that you want to be brought to other cells.
2. Move your curser to the small black square in the lower-right corner of a selected cell also know as
the fill handle. Your pointer will change to a small black cross.
3. Click and hold your mouse then drag the fill handle across the cells, horizontally to the right or
vertically down, that you want to fill.
4. The cells you want filled will have a gray looking border around them. Once you fill all of the cells let

7
Formatting Spreadsheets
To further enhance your spreadsheet you can format a number of elements such as text, numbers,
coloring, and table styles. Spreadsheets can become professional documents used for company
meetings or can even be published.
Wrap Text
You can display multiple lines of text inside a cell by wrapping the text. Wrapping text in a cell does not
affect other cells.
1. Click the cell in which you want to wrap the text.
2. On the Home tab, in the Alignment group, click Wrap Text.
3. The text in your cell will be wrapped.
NOTE: If the text is a long word, the characters won't wrap (the
word won't be split); instead, you can widen the column or decrease the font size to see all the text. If all
the text is not visible after you wrap the text, you might have to adjust the height of the row. On the
Home tab, in the Cells group, click Format, and then under Cell Size click AutoFit Row
Format Numbers
In Excel, the format of a cell is separate from the data that is stored in the cell. This display difference
can have a significant effect when the data is numeric. For example, numbers in cells will default as
rounded numbers, date and time may not appear as anticipated. After you type numbers in a cell, you
can change the format in which they are displayed to ensure the numbers in your spreadsheet are
displayed as you intended.
1. Click the cell(s) that contains the numbers that you want to format.
2. On the Home tab, in the Number group, click the arrow next to the
Number Format box, and then click the format that
you want.
If you are unable to format numbers in the detail you would like that you can click
on the More Number Formats at the bottom of the Number Format drop down
list.

the format that you want to use,
and then adjust settings to the
right of the Format Cells dialog
box. For example, if you’re using
the Currency format, you can
select a different currency
symbol, show more or fewer
decimal places, or change the
way negative numbers are
displayed.

Formulas in Excel
Formulas are equations that perform calculations on values in your worksheet. A formula always starts
with an equal sign (=). An example of a simple is =5+2*3 that multiplies two numbers and then adds a
number to the result. Microsoft Office Excel follows the standard order of mathematical operations. In the
preceding example, the multiplication operation (2*3) is performed first, and then 5 is added to its result.
You can also create a formula by using a function which is a prewritten formula that takes a value,
performs an operation and returns a value. For example, the formulas =SUM(A1:A2) and SUM(A1,A2)
both use the SUM function to add the values in cells A1 and A2.
Depending on the type of formula that you create, a formula can contain any or all of the following parts.
Functions A function, such as PI() or SUM(), starts with an equal
sign (=).
Cell references You can refer to data in worksheet cells by including
cell references in the formula. For example, the cell reference A2
returns the value of that cell or uses that value in the calculation.
Constants You can also enter constants, such as numbers (such as 2) or text values, directly into a
formula.
Operators Operators are the symbols that are used to specify the type of calculation that you want the
formula to perform.
Create a Simple Formulas
1. Click the cell in which you want to enter the formula.
2. Type = (equal sign).
3. Enter the formula by typing the constants and operators
that you want to use in the calculation.
4. Press ENTER.
Create a Formula with Cell References
The first cell reference is B3, the color is blue, and the cell range
has a blue border with square corners.
The second cell reference is C3, the color is green, and the cell
range has a green border with square corners.
To create your formula:
1. Click the cell in which you want to enter the formula.
2. In the formula bar, at the top of the Excel window that you use, , type = (equal sign).
3. Click on the 1st
cell you want in the formula.
4. Enter an Operator such
as +, or *.
5. Click on the next cell you
want in the formula.
Continue steps 3 – 5 until
the formula is complete
6. Hit the ENTER key on
your keyboard.
EXAMPLE
FORMULA
WHAT IT DOES
=5+2 Adds 5 and 2
=5-2 Subtracts 2 from 5
=5/2 Divides 5 by 2
=5*2 Multiplies 5 times 2
=5^2 Raises 5 to the 2nd power
EXAMPLE
FORMULA
WHAT IT DOES
=A1+A2 Adds the values in cells A1 and A2
=A1-A2 Subtracts the value in cell A2 from the value in A1
=A1/A2 Divides the value in cell A1 by the value in A2
=A1*A2 Multiplies the value in cell A1 times the value in A2
=A1^A2 Raises the value in cell A1 to the exponential value
specified in A2

11
Create a Formula with Function
1. Click the cell in which you want to enter the
formula.
2. Click Insert Function on the formula bar
. Excel inserts the equal sign (=) for
you.
3. Select the function that you want to use.
NOTE: If you're not sure which function to use,
type a question that describes what you want to
do in the Search for a function box (for
example, "add numbers" returns the SUM
function), or browse from the categories in the
Or Select a category box.
4. Enter the arguments.
5. After you complete the formula, press ENTER.
Use Auto Sum
To summarize values quickly, you can also use AutoSum.
1. Select the cell where you would like your formulas solution to appear.
2. Go to the Home tab, in the Editing group,
3. Click AutoSum, to sum your numbers or click the arrow next to AutoSum to
select a function that you want to apply.
Delete a Formula
When you delete a formula, the resulting values of the formula is also deleted. However, you can instead
remove the formula only and leave the resulting value of the formula displayed in the cell.
To delete formulas along with their resulting values, do the following:
1. Select the cell or range of cells that contains the formula.
2. Press DELETE.
To delete formulas without removing their resulting values, do the
following:
1. Select the cell or range of cells that contains the formula.
2. On the Home tab, in the Clipboard group, click Copy .
3. On the Home tab, in the Clipboard group, click the arrow below Paste , and then click Paste
Values.

12
Avoid common errors with formulas
The following table summarizes some of the most common errors that you can make when entering a
formula and how to correct those errors:
MAKE SURE THAT
YOU…
MORE INFORMATION
Match all open and close
parentheses
Make sure that all parentheses are part of a matching pair. When you create a
formula, Excel displays parentheses in color as they are entered.
Use a colon to indicate a
range
When you refer to a range of cells, use a colon (:) to separate the reference to
the first cell in the range and the reference to the last cell in the range. For
example, A1:A5.
Enter all required
arguments
Some functions have required arguments. Also, make sure that you have not
entered too many arguments.
Nest no more than 64
functions
You can enter, or nest, no more than 64 levels of functions within a function.
Enclose other sheet
names in single quotation
marks
If the formula refers to values or cells on other worksheets or workbooks, and
the name of the other workbook or worksheet contains a non-alphabetical
character, you must enclose its name within single quotation marks ( ' ).
Enter numbers without
formatting
Do not format numbers as you enter them in formulas. For example, even if
the value that you want to enter is $1,000, enter 1000 in the formula.
Charts in Excel
Microsoft Excel no longer provides the chart wizard. Instead, you can
create a basic chart by clicking the chart type that you want on the
Insert tab in the Charts group. Charts are used to display series of
numeric data in a graphical format to make it easier to understand
large quantities of data and the relationship between different series
of data.
To create a chart in Excel, you start by entering the numeric data for
the chart on a worksheet. Then you can plot that data into a chart by
selecting the chart type that you want to use on the Insert tab, in the
Charts group. Worksheet data
Chart created from worksheet data
Getting to know the elements of a chart
A chart has many elements. Some of these elements
are displayed by default, others can be added as
needed. You can change the display of the chart
elements by moving them to other locations in the
chart, resizing them, or by changing the format. You
can also remove chart elements that you do not want
to display.
1 The chart area is the entire chart and all its
elements
2 The plot area is the area of the chart bounded by
the axes.

13
3 The data points are individual values plotted in a chart represented by bars, columns, lines, or pies.
4 The horizontal (category) and vertical (value) axis along which the data is plotted in the chart.
5 The legend identifies the patterns or colors that are assigned to the data series or categories in the
chart.
6 A chart and axis title are descriptive text that for the axis or chart.
7 A data label provides additional information about a data marker that you can use to identify the
details of a data point in a data series.

Advanced Spreadsheet Modification
Once you have created a basic spreadsheet there are numerous things you can do to make working with
you data easier. Some of these elements are hiding, freezing and splitting rows. You can also sort and
filter data, these features are quite helpful when working with a large amount of data.
Hide or Display Rows and Columns
You can hide a row or column by using the Hide command or when you change its row height or column
width to 0 (zero). You can display either again by using the Unhide command. You can either unhide
specific rows and columns, or you can unhide all hidden rows and columns at the same time. The first
row or column of the worksheet is tricky to unhide, but it can be done.
Hide Rows or Columns
1. Select the rows or columns that you want to hide.
3. Under Visibility, point to Hide & Unhide, and then click Hide
Rows or Hide Columns.
NOTE: You can also right-click a row or column (or a selection of
multiple rows or columns), and then click Hide.
Unhide Rows or Columns
1. Select the rows, columns or entire sheet to unhide.
3. Under Visibility, point to Hide & Unhide, and then click Unhide
Rows or Unhide Columns.
TIP You can also right-click the selection of visible rows and
columns surrounding the hidden rows and columns, and then click Unhide.

16
Freezing/Splitting Rows and Columns
To keep an area of a worksheet visible while you scroll to another area of the worksheet, you can either
lock specific rows or columns in one area by freezing panes.
Freezing vs. splitting
When you freeze panes, Microsoft Excel keeps specific rows or
columns visible when you scroll in the worksheet. For example, if the
first row in your spreadsheet contains labels, you might freeze that
row to make sure that the column labels remain visible as you scroll
down in your spreadsheet. A solid line indicates that the row is
frozen to keep column labels in place when you scroll.
When you split panes, Excel creates either two or four separate worksheet areas that you can scroll
within, while rows or columns in the non-scrolled area remain
visible. This worksheet has been split into four areas. Notice that
each area contains a separate view of the same data. Splitting
panes is useful when you want to see different parts of a large
spreadsheet at the same time.
NOTE: You cannot split panes and freeze panes at the same
time.
Freeze Panes
1. On the worksheet, select the row or column that you want to keep visible when you scroll.
2. On the View tab, in the Window group, click the arrow below Freeze Panes.
3. Then do one of the following:
To lock one row only, click Freeze Top Row.
