Excel Basics #1: What Is Excel?

Please can anyone help me answer any of these questions:

How would you add the contents of the cells from A1 to A10. Give 2 ways
to do this. (hint: Look up "Examples of common formulas" in Excel
help



How do you format a cell to have dollar signs next to the numbers?



How do you add the contents of cells A1 through A10 on sheet 1 and make
the answer show up on sheet 2?



How do you rename a sheet?



Can I delete the sheets that I don't need? If so how?



How do I freeze rows or columns of the sheet so that they don't'
move when you scroll up or down? Example: My name is in Column A, when
I scroll right my mane stays on the screen and column B moves behind A



How do you add up all the contents of column D and make the answer show
up in column C?


Thanks in advance!

I have a spreadsheet that shows a date, because of shipping I need to enter a
date and then calculate three months back and enter that date, For example
Cell A1 March, 2004 and I have to enter into cell B1 January 2004, how do I
get Excel to do this automatically.

I went to the website cpearson.com and got the information for the syntax and the formula to sum numbers in different colors on a worksheet
now my problem is where do i put the visual basic part of the works so the formula can call on it
can you tell i have no idea but great hopes!!!
thanks everyone

I'm trying to populate a Word 2003 document with data from an Excel 2003 document -- I realize some use mail merge but this, for me, has been an excruciating pain in the neck, so I am trying to avoid it by going the Word bookmark route, which looks like it will fit the bill... if only I could figure it out!

I have done some searches on here and this is the code that seems to have set the precedent:

http://www.mrexcel.com/forum/showthread.php?t=478182

However, as a beginner, it's a bit overwhelming for me. While I'm learning a lot by looking at it and looking up the things I don't understand, it's taking a long time and I actually need to use something similar for my own project.

Specifically, I wanted to open a template letter; populate it from the active Excel row I'm working on; and then "Save As" so I can keep the template.

Is there some more generalized information out there that outlines this procedure? Otherwise, would someone be kind enough to separate the code and/or elaborate more on what the invididual lines/sections do?

Hope you can help!

Alright i'm using Excel 2007, i created a table with 2 columns and 5 rows
cell A1 - A5 has a list of numbers, and Cells B1 - B5 has a list of food items,

I've created a blank User-Interface form, using VisualBasics which came inside excel 2007, how do i get the table in my Excel Sheet, to show as it is with it's color coding and grid lines in the VisualBasics Form,


My second question is, I also created a Seperate Visual Basics form in Visual Basics 2008, could i get the table in the Excel form, to show in the form in Visual Basics 2008 programme, I have no clue how to link Visual basics, to Excel so a non-overly technical step-by-step guide would be extremely appreciated,


Thank you,

Basicly the same as the title.. I want to learn more about excel... I consider myself to be just a bit better then a noob, i can use the sum function, and i think i understand how most easy things work

I am trying to get my head wrapped around basic concept but nothing I found helps.

In A1 i have the value 1
in B1 =if(a1=1,"yes","no)

When I press enter yes appears, duh. Can somebody show me what this would look like in VBA form?

What do you guys recommend for someone who wants to get into VBA but has currently has no experience with it?

What resources are there for newbies?
Basic how-to books?
Tutorial websites?
Classes?

Thanks!

how can I simplify this code? thank you for your help

I am sorry to post again in another thread, I'm still getting used to the forum!

I had a question about SUMIF, SUMIFS and SUMPRODUCT.
Well, I could manage to work with SUMIFS, but now I have an urgent need to adapt it to OO, so I need SUMPRODUCT.

I attached an Example of my DataSheet. It has SALES and the BREAKDOWN, where I basically put together a daily report!

As you can see, on the BREAKDOWN Sheet I want to SUMIF the values of the SALES, but under the FORM OF PAYMENT criteria. I can do it easily with SUIMIF, but when I go to the next day e.g. 10/10/10 I have to use SUMIF again and manually declare the range of rows I want to include in the formula, and that really sux! I want to say WHEN ANY cells from the Column A from SALES matches the value of A2 (05/05/05 in the example), then SUMIF(RANGE 1;"CREDIT";RANGE 2), the regular SUMIF! This first condition is killing me! Can anyone help?

Thank you!
