1.0 Using Worksheets and Workbooks


1.1.0 How to keep record and find your data fast and easy
Excel can be compared to a real book and we call that book a “workbook”. A workbook can contain one or several pages, which in Excel, we call “worksheets”.
Now, imagine a workbook containing lots of information all mixed-up in only one worksheet; for instance, a company’s financial statement for five long years.
Would you be able to locate specific information, like a month’s report, easily? Obviously, the answer is NO. That’s when the idea of having multiple worksheets
becomes handy. Excel indeed is a great tool, especially for record-keeping, and of course, finding.

1.1.1 Adding worksheets to existing workbooks


Most of the time, we need to add worksheets on our workbook to organize the contents of our file. To add worksheets –
1. Click on the plus sign next to Sheet1.

2. Keep adding sheet tabs until you have as many as you need.

1.1.2 Deleting Worksheets


The easiest way is to Right Click on the sheet tab you want to delete and then select Delete, as shown below. The worksheet will be deleted immediately.

1.1.3 Copying worksheets


If you want to have duplicate copy of a worksheet, just follow these steps:
1. Right click on the worksheet tab. Select Move or Copy Sheet.

2. Tick Create a copy. Select where you want to place the copy. Click Ok.

1.1.4 Moving worksheets


Aside from the step indicated above, sequence of your worksheets can also be changed by following this technique: Click and drag on the sheet tab to move it then
drag this to the location you wish to place it.

1.1.5 Renaming a worksheet


To have a more meaningful and organized workbook, you can rename your worksheets instead of using the usual Sheet1, Sheet2, etc.
1. Double click on the sheet tab. (Current name will be highlighted.)

2. Type your preferred name and then click away to confirm.

1.1.6 Changing worksheet tab color


When you have many worksheets, changing the tab color will be helpful in recognizing the one you need.

Right Click the Worksheet tab. Click on Tab Color. Choose the color from the color palette.

1.1.7 Hiding worksheets


Right click on the worksheet tab you wish to hide. Select Hide.

1.1.8 Un-hiding worksheets


Right click on a worksheet tab. Select Unhide.

Click on the worksheet you wish to unhide. Click OK.

1.2.0 Protect workbook


To prevent other users from viewing hidden worksheets, adding, moving, deleting, or hiding worksheets, and renaming worksheets, you can protect the structure of
your Excel workbook with a password.

Example of a workbook's structure

Notes: Protecting the workbook is not the same as protecting an Excel file or a worksheet with a password.

1.2.1 Protect the workbook structure


To protect the structure of your workbook, follow these steps:

1. Click Review > Changes > Protect Workbook.

Note: If you are using Excel 2010 and earlier, you can also select the Windows option if you want to prevent users from moving, resizing, or closing the workbook
window, or hide/unhide windows. The Windows option is unavailable in Excel 2013 and later versions.

2. Enter a password in the Password box.


3. Click OK, and retype the password to confirm it.

1.3.0 Convert Excel To PDF


Sometimes, it may be useful to convert Excel files to PDF ("Portable Document Format"). PDF files present a read-only version of your spreadsheet to others,
thereby preserving the document's formatting and preventing the document from being easily altered.

Also, individuals who don't have Excel installed on their computer can read PDF files, although they will need the Adobe Reader software, which can be downloaded
for free from the Adobe website.

Save to PDF in Current Versions of Excel (Excel 2013 and Later):

In current versions of Excel, you can save your Excel spreadsheet to a PDF file using the 'Export' command, as follows:

1. From the 'File' menu, select the Export option;

2. From the 'Export' options select Create PDF/XPS Document and click on the Create PDF/XPS button to open up the 'Publish as PDF or XPS' dialog box:

3. From the Save as type drop-down menu, ensure the option PDF (*.pdf) is selected;
4. Type a file name into the File name: field;
5. Note that the dialog box has options that allow you to open the file after publishing, optimize the new PDF file or, by clicking on the Options... button,
specify the section of the Excel file that you wish to publish;
6. Once you are satisfied with your selected options, click Publish.

1.4.0 Printing With Headings and Titles


Titles in Excel are especially handy when you are working on a very long list. Sometimes, we have a hard time printing on this program. We often bump into the problem of
missing headings or titles on the other pages. Though the first page looks good, the next ones often are not. This is where the “Print Titles” option become very handy.

Print titles feature makes this problem be solved in a matter of seconds!

So, do you know where to find the “Print Titles” option in Excel? It is found in the Page Layout Ribbon, specifically on the Page Setup group. Just click it and you’ll
be happy and surprised with its powerful ability to control on the things you wanted to see on your printed file.

Step 1: How to start preparing the Excel document.

1.4.1 How to Use the Print Titles


The picture below summarizes the steps on using the “Print Titles” option in Excel. You can also refer on the listed steps below to guide you on using this feature.

How to define what you want to print.

2.0 Basic Excel Functions


SUM, AVERAGE, MAX, MIN and COUNT

One of the most advantageous uses of Excel is its capability to handle formulas. Users appreciate the fact that calculations can be made easier using this platform.
Students, and even professionals, rely on its capabilities to lessen their burden on doing certain calculations and operations over and over again. However,
calculations using formula is not the only feature Excel can boast. It also has its “functions”, or specially programmed formulas, which allow users to perform more
complicated calculations in just few clicks.

2.1.0 How do these “basic Excel functions” work?


Basically, no one would be happy adding up 500 items on Excel workbook by clicking on them one by one so they will be in a single formula. It would also be tedious
to anyone of us to work on the average of a thousand numbers by just relying on self-created formula. If you are dealing with these kinds of work, Excel’s basic
functions are intended to help you deal with these stuffs.

2.1.1 The structure of basic functions


A function begins with an equals sign (=), followed by the name of the function, then the details of the function enclosed in brackets.
For example:
=Average(B3:B6)

The Auto Sum Button

The Auto Sum Button.


There are five basic functions under the Auto Sum button. These are SUM, AVERAGE, COUNT NUMBERS, MAX and MIN. Basically, their names define their purposes.

2.1.2 Using the Auto Sum Button


To use the Auto sum button, just follow the instructions enumerated below:
1. Click on the cell where you want your answer be placed.
2. On the ribbon, go to the Editing group found on the Home tab.
3. Click on the Auto Sum drop down button.
4. Select the function you need to use.
5. The cells that Excel thinks you want to calculate will be highlighted and the function will appear in the cell. (Note: If Excel did not automatically select the
cells you want, you can click and drag over the ones you do want to include.)
6. Press Enter.
7. The answer will be shown in the cell you initially choose.

Select the function you need to use.

Knowing the ability of Excel’s basic functions, you can save lots of time and effort in making long and complicated formulas. The platform surely will make your job
easier and faster. You will also not worry on the accuracy of your worksheets since the program was able to condense your supposed to be long formulas in just a
single word. Just remember, functions are just a click away!

4.0 Excel View Options


Excel allows you to change the view of your spreadsheet by zooming in or out, freeze panes, hide columns/rows, etc. Some of the more popular options are
explained in the following links.

When you are working with a large spreadsheet in Microsoft Excel, it's easy to find yourself scrolling down or across and losing track of where you are. To solve the
problem, you can freeze (lock) the heading rows so that they don't disappear off the top of the screen as you scroll down the worksheet.

4.1.0 How to freeze rows and columns


You have two options for freezing panes in Excel. Note that these steps also apply to freezing columns:
• Freeze several rows and/or columns
• Freeze just the first row (or column)
1. To freeze just one row, click the View menu, and find the Freeze Panes.
2. When you click the Freeze Panes button, you can choose Freeze Top Row from the expanded Freeze Panes options. If you wanted to freeze the first column,
you would then go back and choose that option.

3. The step slightly different to freeze more than one row or column. If you look at the screenshot below, you'll see that the first row doesn't actually contain the
headings for the sales data table - it contains the title of this worksheet.
4. To freeze the heading row of the table, you will have to freeze the first five rows in the worksheet. To do this, click in the cell A6 (i.e the first row that should not
be frozen) and choose the first option in the Freeze Panes drop-down menu (it's also called Freeze Panes).
5. When you do this, not much will appear to change. All you'll see is a line stretching across the screen, almost like a border along the bottom of row 5 (which is
the last row to be frozen in our example). The screenshot shows what Freeze Panes looks like if you had clicked B6 before clicking Freeze Panes (i.e. you wanted
rows 1-5 and column A to be frozen):

6. Here's what the sales data table looks like if you scroll down. As you can see, the first five rows have stayed put, and the other rows have disappeared
underneath them as I've scrolled down the screen:

4.1.1 How to unfreeze panes in Excel


Unfreezing panes is, fortunately, fairly simple. Choose the View menu, click the Freeze Panes button. Choose the first option which is now Unfreeze Panes. Click that
option and the frozen rows will be unfrozen.

4.2 Excel Zoom Menu


1. The Excel Zoom option is located within the 'Zoom' grouping in the View tab of the Excel ribbon.
2. Selecting the Zoom option causes the Zoom options dialog box to pop up. This dialog box gives you the option to select a set magnification (e.g. 200%, 400%,
etc.), or to specify a magnification of your own.
3. The Zoom dialog box also gives you the option to zoom to selection (i.e. to adjust the zoom scale to fit the currently selected cells in the current view).
4. Simply, you may also adjust the zoom range at the status bar.

4.3.0 How to Hide Columns and Rows in Excel


Steps to Hide Columns:

1. Select the column(s) to be hidden.


2. Using the mouse to right-click on the selected column(s) and then selecting Hide from the right-click menu.
3. To unhide the columns, you may mouse to right-click on the selected column(s) and then selecting Unhide from the right-click menu.

5.0 Formulas in Excel


5.1.0 4 tips when using formulas
One of the basic functions of Excel that users love is its capability of utilizing and interpreting simple to complicated calculations using formula. If you are using
the platform for a long time, this feature has served you for so long and you might be dealing with complex calculations and formulas already. However, for
those who are using the program for the first time, you might be surprised with the fact that Excel can make your calculations in just a few clicks. Yes, it can! You
will just have to learn few tricks to incite your learning and be able to make your own formulas based on your need.

In Excel, we use the term “formula” when we refer to the calculation in the spreadsheet. It can be as simple as adding or subtracting numbers or a more powerful
one that includes more complex operations. A formula always starts with an equal sign (=), followed by numbers, mathematical operations or functions.
For instance, we want to multiply 2 by 3 then add 5, we are going to write it as:
=2*3+5
The answer in this example is 11.
If you want to know more about formulas and be able to write your own, just follow these four simple yet essential tips.

5.1.1 Tip number 1: Using cell reference in formulas


Cell reference refers to the location of the cell in the spreadsheet. It is the combination of the column (letter) and the row (number) header, like A1, B2, C3…
Instead of writing numbers in the formula and constantly changing it when the value you want to calculate changes, write the formula using the cell reference, as
shown below.

So, instead of writing “=3*2”, write “=A1*B1”. In this case, there’s no need to edit the formula when you change the value you want to calculate.

5.1.2 Tip number 2: Creating formula


Basically, a formula follows this structure:
• An equal sign in the beginning
• First cell reference
• A mathematical symbol to denote the type of calculation
• Second cell reference
The Mathematical symbols used by Excel are:
• + for Addition
• – for Subtraction
• * for Multiplication
• / for Division
To create the formula
1. Click on the cell where you require the answer
2. Type the = sign
3. Click on the first cell involved in your calculation
4. Type the math symbol you are using
5. Click on the next cell involved in your calculation

6. Repeat steps 4 & 5 (if you need to add more cells to your formula)
7. Press Enter
8. The cell will then show the result of the formula

5.1.3 Tip number 3: Making changes in the formula


There are two ways to change the formula
• In the Cell
1. Double click on the cell that contains the formula
2. Edit as you wish
3. Press Enter
• In the Formula Bar
1. Select the cell that contains the formula
2. Click on the Formula Bar and make the changes
3. Press Enter

5.1.4 Tip number 4: Copying formula using autofill


It would be tedious to manually write the same formula over and over again, that’s why Excel 2016 maintains this feature that will help you copy formula in just few
steps – the Autofill.
1. Create your first formula
2. Select the cell
3. Hover your cursor over the bottom right-hand corner of the cell until you get the black cross (1)

4. Click and drag in the direction you want to Auto fill

5. The formula is copied down and the results appear in the cells

Above four simple tips will make your computation a lot easier. You’ll save not only your energy but a lot of time as well.

6.0 Conditional Formatting


Conditional formatting allows you to automatically apply formatting—such as colors, icons, and data bars—to one or more cells based on the cell value. To do
this, you'll need to create a conditional formatting rule. For example, a conditional formatting rule might be: If the value is less than $2000, color the cell red.
By applying this rule, you'd be able to quickly see which cells contain values less than $2000.

6.1.0 To create a conditional formatting rule


In our example, we have a worksheet containing sales data, and we'd like to see which salespeople are meeting their monthly sales goals. The sales goal is
$4000 per month, so we'll create a conditional formatting rule for any cells containing a value higher than 4000.

1. Select the desired cells for the conditional formatting rule.


2. From the Home tab, click the Conditional Formatting command. A drop-down menu will appear.
3. Hover the mouse over the desired conditional formatting type, then select the desired rule from the menu that appears. In our example, we want to
highlight cells that are greater than $4000.

4. A dialog box will appear. Enter the desired value(s) into the blank field. In our example, we'll enter 4000 as our value.
5. Select a formatting style from the drop-down menu. In our example, we'll choose Green Fill with Dark Green Text, then click OK.

6. The conditional formatting will be applied to the selected cells. In our example, it's easy to see which salespeople reached the $4000 sales goal for each
month.

7.0 Charts
A simple chart in Excel can say more than a sheet full of numbers. Charts are what we call graphs in math class.

Charts are visual representations of worksheet data. Charts often makes it easier to understand the data in a worksheet because users can easily pick out patterns
and trends illustrated in the chart that are otherwise difficult to see.

Different types of charts serve different purposes:

Pie Charts: are used to show percentages.

Bar Charts: A bar/column chart is a chart or graph that presents grouped data with rectangular bars with lengths proportional to the values that they
represent. The bars can be plotted vertically or horizontally.

Line Charts/line graphs: are used to show trends over time. Each line in the graph shows the changes in the value of one item of data.

Combo Charts: combine two different types of charts into one display. Typical the two charts are a line graph and a column chart, and to accomplish this,
Excel makes use of a third axis - called the secondary Y axis - that runs up the right-hand side of the chart.

7.1.0 Create a Chart


To create a line chart, execute the following steps.
1. Select the range A1:D7.
2. On the Insert tab, in the Charts group, choose Line, and select Line with Markers.

9.0 Lookup Functions


9.1 VLookup
The VLOOKUP (Vertical lookup) function looks for a value in the leftmost column of a table, and then returns a value in the same row from another column you
specify.

1. Insert the VLOOKUP function shown below.

Explanation: the VLOOKUP function looks for the ID (104) in the leftmost column of the range $E$4:$G$7 and returns the value in the same row from the third
column (third argument is set to 3). The fourth argument is set to FALSE to return an exact match or a #N/A error if not found.

2. Drag the VLOOKUP function in cell B2 down to cell B11.

Note: when we drag the VLOOKUP function down, the absolute reference ($E$4:$G$7) stays the same, while the relative reference (A2) changes to A3, A4, A5, etc.

9.2 HLookup
In a similar way, you can use the HLOOKUP (Horizontal lookup) function.
