Introduction to Spreadsheet Software

Spreadsheets and Their Uses Examples of Charts Spreadsheet Basics Spreadsheet Map Types of Spreadsheet Data Navigating Around a Spreadsheet Editing Cell Contents Spreadsheet Security Basic Formulas Lesson Overview

Spreadsheets provide tools for working with numerical information. You can use a spreadsheet program to create budgets, balance sheets, and other types of number-based documents. You can display your information in a traditional row-and-column format, or in a chart. The default filename for Excel files is “Book 1”. Excel files use the extension “.xls” Spreadsheet and Their Uses

Report using color and graphics Charts

In a spreadsheet program, you work in a document called a W orksheet. You can collect multiple worksheets into a file called a W orkbook. In each worksheet Rows are identified by Numbers, and Columns are identified by Letters. Data is displayed in Cells. A group of selected cells is called a Range. Each cell has a Cell Address – the combination of the cell's column letter and row number. Spreadsheet Basics

Labels --text or numbers not used in calculations. Values --numbers that can be used in calculations. Dates- -a necessary part of most worksheets. Formulas --commands to perform calculations. There are four types of data you may enter in a cell: Types of Spreadsheet Data

Navigating Around a Spreadsheet Use your Mouse and click on selected cell. The Arrow Keys will also move you around the spreadsheet. The Enter key will move you down one cell. The Tab key will move you one cell to the left. Shift + Tab will move one cell to the right. CTRL + HOME will go to cell A1. Home will move to column A in current row. CTRL + DOWN ARROW will move to last row. CTRL + RIGHT ARROW will move to last column. PGUP and PGDN will move up and down

Editing Cell Contents Delete/Insert: Same process as in MS Word. May also insert/delete whole columns/rows by using the right click button on mouse. Copy/Cut and Paste: Same process as in MS Word. “Paste Special” may be used to copy Formulas, Values and Formats (font type, size, bold, colours…). Fill Handle: The Fill Handle can be used to copy quickly. Can also be used to continue a series of Labels, Values, Dates, or Formulas Drag across or down to nearby cells

Spreadsheet protection is important to ensure that data is not inappropriately changed. Data can be password protected by selecting Protection from the Tools menu. You can choose to protect either a single worksheet or the entire workbook. It is import to remember your password and only share it with those you trust. Spreadsheet Security

Common formulas include: Sum/Subtract/Multiply/Divide – performs basic arithmetic functions. Average – Calculates average in specified range Min – indicates the lowest number in range Max – indicates the highest number in range Basic Spreadsheet Formulas
