Objectives 1.1 Navigate Through a Worksheet 1.2 Print a Worksheet or Workbook 1.3 Personalize the Excel Environment
3
Intro Each Excel workbook consists of individual worksheets (three by default, but you can add and remove worksheets at will) which, when printed, are divided into pages. You can personalize many aspects of Excel functionality and of the Excel program window to tailor the Excel working environment so that you can most efficiently create and manipulate data on worksheets. You can also control the page layout of a worksheet so that, when printed, each page displays the information you want.
4
1.1- Navigate through a Worksheet You can move around in a worksheet in many ways, including the following: ● Pressing directional keyboard keys and key combinations ● Specifying a named cell or range of cells Specifying a property of the cell in the Go To Special dialog box

Practice Tasks The practice file for these tasks is located in the Excel\Objective1 practice file folder. If you want to save the results of the tasks, save them in the same folder with My appended to the file name so that you don’t overwrite the original practice file. ● Open the PopulationData workbook. Using the techniques described in this section, move to cell J6 of the NST03 worksheet. ● Using the techniques described in this section, move to the first worksheet cell that contains a comment. ● Move to the cell range named US_2006. ● Move to the last populated cell in the worksheet.
11
1.2- Print a Worksheet or Workbook Printing Part or All of a Workbook An Excel workbook can contain many separate worksheets of data. You can print part or all of an individual worksheet, a selected worksheet, or all the worksheets that contain content at one time. By default, Excel prints only the currently active worksheet(s). If you want to print only part of a worksheet, you can do so from the Print page of the Backstage view or, if you will often print the same portion of a worksheet, you can define that portion as the print area.
12
1.2- Print a Worksheet or Workbook After defining the print area of a worksheet, you can add selected ranges to it. A contiguous range becomes part of the original print area definition; a range that is noncontiguous or a different shape becomes a separate print area and is printed on a separate page. You can also remove ranges from the print area. If you don’t want to limit printing to the print area, you can permanently clear the print area or temporarily ignore it by selecting an option on the Print page of the Backstage view.
13

On the Print page of the Backstage view, in the Settings area, display the first Print list, and then click Print Active Sheets.

18
Setting Page Breaks When the cell entries in a worksheet will not fit within the margins of one printed page, Excel indicates which cells will print on which page by inserting a soft page break. Page breaks are indicated in Normal view as dashed lines. If you want to control how pages break, you can insert manual page breaks. Before printing a worksheet, you can preview the page breaks and fine-tune their placement.
19
Setting Page Breaks
20
➤ To insert a manual page break 1. Click the cell in column A above which you want to insert a horizontal page break. Or Click the cell in row 1 to the left of which you want to insert a vertical page break. Or Click a cell anywhere in the worksheet above and to the left of which you want to insert both horizontal and vertical page breaks. 2. On the Page Layout tab, in the Page Setup group, click the Breaks button, and then click Insert Page Break.
21
Setting Page Breaks ➤ To delete a manual page break 1. Click any cell below or to the right of the page break you want to remove. 2. On the Page Layout tab, in the Page Setup group, click the Breaks button, and then click Remove Page Break. ➤ To delete all manual page breaks ➜ On the Page Layout tab, in the Page Setup group, click the Breaks button, and then click Reset All Page Breaks. ➤ To preview and adjust page breaks 1. On the View toolbar located at the right end of the status bar, click the Page Break Preview button and, if a message box appears, click OK. 2.

25
Printing Page Headers and Footers You can display information on every page of a printed worksheet by creating and formatting headers and footers. You can have a different header and footer on the first page or different headers and footers on odd and even pages. When you create a header or footer, Excel opens header and footer areas and displays the Header & Footer Tools Design contextual tab on the ribbon. You can enter information in the header and footer areas in the following ways:
26
Printing Page Headers and Footers ● Select information, such as the company name, the file name, or the worksheet name, from a list. ● Type the information the same way you would enter ordinary text. ● Use commands on the Design contextual tab to enter and format items such as the page number or the date and time.

30
Practice Tasks The practice files for these tasks are located in the Excel\Objective1 practice file folder. If you want to save the results of the tasks, save them in the same folder with My appended to the file name so that you don’t overwrite the original practice file. ● Configure the SalesByCategory worksheet of the PrintArea workbook so that printing with the default settings will print only columns B and C with gridlines. ● On the Orders worksheet of the PageBreaks workbook, insert a page break before row 31. Then review the page breaks, and ensure that only columns A through D will appear on the first page. ● In the HeaderFooter workbook, create a header that will print on all the pages of the Orders worksheet except the first. On the left, enter today’s date; in the center, enter the name of the workbook; and on the right, enter the page number. Return to Normal view, and then change the center section of the header to reflect the name of the worksheet instead of the workbook. ● Configure the print settings of the HeaderFooter workbook so that page numbers print at the bottom of each page instead of the top.

Working with Properties Before distributing a workbook, you might want to attach properties to it so that the file is readily identifiable in the Details view of any browsing dialog box, such as the Open dialog box. You can attach properties to a workbook in the Document Information Panel. Particularly useful are properties called keywords in the Document Information Panel, which are identified as tags in Windows Explorer and in the Details view of browsing dialog boxes. You can view the properties of the current workbook on the Info page of the Backstage view. You enter keywords in the Document Information Panel or on the Summary page of the Properties dialog box, separating multiple keywords with semicolons.
