MS Excel some important tips and tricks

In this post I will show you some MS Excel important tips and tricks.

Here are a few tips and tricks for using Microsoft Excel:

1. Use keyboard shortcuts to save time: for example, you can use “Ctrl + C” to copy and “Ctrl + V” to paste. You can also use “Ctrl + Z” to undo and “Ctrl + Y” to redo.
2. Use the SUM function to quickly add up a range of cells: for example, to add up cells A1 through A5, you can use the formula “=SUM(A1:A5)”.
3. Use the AutoSum button to quickly sum a range of cells: simply select the cells you want to sum and click the AutoSum button (it looks like a capital “S” with a line under it) in the Home tab of the ribbon.
4. Use the IF function to perform logical tests: for example, you can use the formula “=IF(A1>B1, “A is greater”, “B is greater”)” to compare the values in cells A1 and B1 and return a different result depending on which one is greater.
5. Use the COUNTIF function to count the number of cells that meet a certain criteria: for example, you can use the formula “=COUNTIF(A1:A10, “>5″)” to count the number of cells in the range A1 through A10 that are greater than 5.
6. Use the Text to Columns feature to split cell contents into multiple columns: for example, if you have a column of full names and you want to split them into first and last name columns, you can use Text to Columns to do this.
7. Use the Filter feature to sort and filter your data: you can use the Filter button in the Data tab of the ribbon to filter your data by one or more criteria.

I hope these tips and tricks are helpful!
