Redo, etc.
  When user clicks the drop-down arrow next to toolbar it offers more commands.
 With a left click you can add any of these commands to Quick Access Toolbar.
 You can also remove the commands added to the tool bar.
 The indent, spacing values, individual styles and other features that appear on
the ribbon cannot be added to quick access toolbar.
 The following image is showing the menu of quick access toolbar.

How to Show the Navigation Pane in Word?

 The Navigation pane in Word lets you quickly search or navigate through
your document.
 To show the Navigation pane in Word, click the “View” tab in the Ribbon.
 For all document views other than “Read Mode,” then check the “Navigation
Pane” checkbox in the “Show” button group.

 The Navigation pane in Word 2007 is called the Document Map.

 To open the Document Map, click View > Document Map.
Creating first document
1. A blank document, which looks like a white sheet of paper and takes up most of
the window.
2. In the document, look for the cursor, which tells you where the content you type
will appear on the page.

Fix spelling and grammar as you type

1. By default, Word automatically checks your document for spelling and
grammar errors. These errors are indicated by colored wavy lines.
2. Red underline: This Red underline indicates either a possible spelling error
or that Word doesn’t recognize a word, such as a proper name or place.
  The blue line indicates a contextual spelling error.
 A contextual spelling error is when an incorrect spelling of a word is chosen.
For example, if you write Deer Mr. Singh at the beginning of a letter, deer is a
contextual spelling error because dear should have been used. Deer is spelled
correctly, but it is used incorrectly in this letter.

 The green line indicates a grammatical error.

Add formatting to your text

Let’s make the text bold.
 The second tab, the Home tab, should be selected.
 Each tab has several groups of commands.
 On the Home tab, look for the Font group, where user will see buttons and
commands that perform a specific action on your document.
 For example, the Bold button makes the text bold, or you can change the font
color and size of text with the Font Color and Font Size buttons.
  You can make most changes to text from the Font group, but formatting text this
way is handy when you want to change the format of just a few characters or
words.
 However, there’s a way to make all the changes we just did with just
one command, by using styles.
 The Paragraph and Styles groups, on the Home tab.

Change page margins

 Page margins are the blank spaces around the edges of the page. There is a 1-
inch (2.54 cm) page margin at the top, bottom, left, and right sides of the page.
 This is the most common margin width; which user might use for most of their
documents.
 But if you want different margins, user should know how to change them, which
user can at any time.
 You also use the ribbon to change margins, except you work from the Page
Layout tab.
 First, you click it to select it, and then, in the Page Setup group, user
click Margins.
 You’ll see different margin sizes, shown in little pictures (icons), along with the
measurements for each of the margins.

 The first margin in the list is Normal, the current margin.

  To get narrower margins, you would click Narrow.
 If you want the left and right margins to be much wider, click Wide.
 When you click the margin type that you want, your entire
document automatically changes to the margin type you selected.

 When you choose a margin, the icon for the margin you chose gets a different
colour background.
 If you click the Margins button again, that background colour tells you which
margin size has been set for your document.
 The first margin in the list is Normal, the current margin.
 To get narrower margins, you would click Narrow.
 If you want the left and right margins to be much wider, click Wide.
 When you click the margin type that you want, your entire
document automatically changes to the margin type you selected.
 When you choose a margin, the icon for the margin you chose gets a
different colour background.
 If you click the Margins button again, that background colour tells you which
margin size has been set for your document.

Save, print and close a new document

a. Save a new document
 On the ribbon, you click the first tab, the File
tab.
 This opens a large window called the
Backstage, a place where you take care of a
lot of things, such as saving you document
and printing it.
 In the left column, you click Save. A smaller
window, called a dialog box, opens.

 You use this box to tell Word where you want

to store the document on your computer, and
what you want to call it.
 After you save your document, and you
continue to type, you should save your work
as you go.
b. Print and close a new document
 Need to print? When you’re ready to print, click again the File tab (the first tab).
 In the left column, you click the Print command.
 A large window opens, and you click the Print button, of course, you’ll need to
have a printer hooked up to your computer.
 When you are through with the document and have saved your work, close the
file.
 Click the File tab, and in the left column click Close.

Use formatting marks

 To see formatting marks, go to the ribbon, at the top of the window.
 On the Home tab, in the Paragraph group, click the Show/Hide button.
 Click the button again to hide formatting marks.

 Word inserts a paragraph mark each time you press ENTER to start a new
paragraph.
 In the picture, there are two paragraph marks between the two paragraphs, which
means that ENTER was pressed twice.
 This creates extra space between paragraphs.

Move text around in the document

 What if you need to move some text around in the document?
 You don’t need to delete it and type it again where you want it. Instead, just
use Cut and Paste.
 Select the sentence you want to move, as shown in the picture.
 On the ribbon, on the Home tab, click Cut.
  Move the cursor to the end of the paragraph, where you want the sentence to
appear (after the dot formatting mark).
 On the Home tab, in the Clipboard group, click Paste.

Undo
 You’ve moved the sentence, but now that you look at it, you’re not happy
with the change.
 Fortunately, you don’t have to go through the entire cut-and-paste process again
to move the sentence back to its original place.
 Instead, use Undo.
 On the Quick Access Toolbar at the very top of the window, click
the Undo button.
 This will undo the last action you took, which in this case was pasting
the sentence in the new location.
 Click the Undo button again to undo the previous action, which in this case
was cutting the sentence from its original location.
 Now your sentence is back in its original location.

1.4 Essential Formatting Knowledge - The Home Ribbon

1.4.1 Styles Gallery

 In Microsoft Office Word, styles are reusable sets of formatting options that user
can apply to text.
 For example, suppose user wants the headings in their document to appear in
bold and in a particular color and font size.
 Although user can manually set each formatting option individually for each
header, it is much easier to use a style that applies all of these options at
once.

1. How to add a style to the Quick Styles gallery?

 First, display the Styles pane.
 Now user can see the Styles pane. Scroll down the list to find the style you
want to change.
  If user can't see their style, then click Options. In the 'Select styles to show'
list, choose "All Styles" and click OK. Now, you should see your style in the
Styles pane.
 Within the Styles pane, right-click the name of user style and choose 'Add to
Quick Style Gallery'.

2. How to remove a style from the Quick Styles gallery

 In the Quick Styles gallery, right-click the thumbnail for a style and then choose
"Remove from Quick Style Gallery".

 At the bottom of the Styles pane, click the 'Manage Styles' button. That opens
the Manage Styles dialog box

  Find the style you want to change. If necessary, use the 'Sort order' box to display
the list alphabetically.

 Click the 'Assign value' button and give it a number. Anything from 1 to 99.
Try, say, 4. This determines the display position in the Quick Styles gallery.

1.4.2 Format Painter

 Use the Format Painter on the Home tab to quickly apply the same formatting,
such as color, font style and size, and border style, to multiple pieces of text or
graphics.
 Select the text or graphic that has the formatting that you want to copy.
 On the Home tab, click Format Painter.
 Use the brush to paint over a selection of text or graphics to apply the formatting.
 To stop formatting, press ESC.

1.4.3 Basic Paragraph Formats

 Paragraph formatting lets user control the appearance if individual paragraphs.
For example, user can change the alignment of text from left to center or the
spacing between lines form single to double.
 User can indent paragraphs, number them, or add borders and shading to them.
 Paragraph formatting is applied to an entire paragraph.
 All formatting for a paragraph is stored in the paragraph mark and carried to the
next paragraph when you press the Enter key.
1. Paragraph Alignment
 Paragraph alignment determines how the lines in a paragraph appear in relation
to the left and right margins.
 The margin is the blank space between the edge of the paper and where the text.

 The easiest way to change paragraph alignment is to use the alignment buttons
on the Formatting toolbar.

2. Line Spacing
 Line space is the amount of vertical space between lines of text in a paragraph.
 Line spacing is typically based on the height of the characters, but you
can change it to a specific value.
 For example, some paragraphs may be single spaced and some double-spaced.
Single-spacing is Word’s default setting.
3. Paragraph Spacing
 Paragraph space is the amount of space above or below a paragraph.
 Instead of pressing Enter multiple times to increase space between paragraphs,
you can set a specific amount of space before or after paragraphs.

4. Paragraph Indents
 An indent increases the distance between the side of a paragraph and the left
or right margin.
 Indented paragraphs appear to have different margin settings. Word provides
a variety of indents to emphasize paragraphs in a document.
1.4.4 Bullets and numbering
 Word lets user make two types of lists: bulleted and numbered. Bulleted and
numbered lists help to simplify steps or items to readers.
 A bullet is usually a black circle, but it can be any other symbol used to
highlight items in a list.
 Numbers—or letters—are used when information must be in a certain order.

 User can view the type of bullets and numbers available to user by opening
the Bullets and Numbering dialog box.

1.5 The View Ribbon

1.5.1 Document Views

 Ms- Word gives user five different views of a document, and each has its own
advantages over the others.
 They are Print Layout, Full Screen Reading, Web Layout, Outline and Draft and
you can guess what purpose some of them serve just by their names. There are
two ways of changing the view user have of a document.
 User can click the View tab and then choose a particular view from the
Document Views tab, or user can use the view buttons next to the zoom slider in
the bottom right of the work space.
a. Print Layout View
 This is the default view you'll find yourself in when opening a document.
 This view is best used when your document will contain things like images,
headers, and footers, columns, etc.

breaks.

b. Full Screen Reading View

Templates to a Workbook
Apply Templates to a Workbook
 A template is a predesigned spreadsheet you can use to create new spreadsheets
with the same formatting and predefined formulas.
 With templates, you don't need to know how to do the math, or even how to write
formulas—these are already integrated into the spreadsheet.
To create new workbooks using templates on your computer:
 Open Excel.
 Click the Microsoft Office button.
  Click Installed Templates. Thumbnail images of the templates that are installed
on your computer appear in the center of the dialog box.

 Select a template from the center area of the dialog box. A slightly larger image
of the template appears on the right side of the dialog box.

Formatting in Excel
What are number formats?
 Whenever user is working with a spreadsheet, it's a good idea to use
appropriate number formats for your data.
 Number formats tell your spreadsheet exactly what type of data you're using, like
percentages (%), currency ($), times, dates, and so on.
Applying number formats

1. Go to the Home tab, click the Number Format drop-down menu in

the Number group, and select the desired format.
 2. Click one of the quick number-formatting commands below the drop-down
menu.

example, if you would like to only view data regarding Flavors, click the drop-
down arrow next to Category.

To clear one filter:

 Select one of the drop-down arrows next to a filtered column.
 Choose Clear Filter From...
2.3 Create Your First Spreadsheet

2.3.1 Do Basic Math in Excel

 Instead of using a calculator, use Microsoft Excel to do the math!
 You can enter simple formulas to add, divide, multiply, and subtract two or more
numeric values. Or use the AutoSum feature to quickly total a series of values
without entering them manually in a formula.
 All formula entries begin with an equal sign (=).

2.3.2 Use AutoSum

 The easiest way to add a SUM formula to your worksheet is to use AutoSum.
 Select an empty cell directly above or below the range that you want to sum, and
on the Home or Formula tabs of the ribbon, click AutoSum > Sum

2.3.3 Create Column Titles

 In Microsoft Excel, the column headers are named A, B, C, and so on by default.
  Some users want to change the names of the column headers to something more
meaningful
 Unfortunately, Excel does not allow the header names to be changed.
 If you want to have meaningful column header names, you can do the following.
1. Click in the first row of the worksheet and insert a new row above that first
row.
2. In the inserted row, enter the preferred name for each column.
3. To make the row of column names more noticeable, you could increase the
text size, make the text bold, or add background color to the cells in that row.

2.3.4 Get More (Or Less) Columns, Rows, Spreadsheets

2.3.4.1 To modify column width

 However, the mouse over the line between two columns. The cursor will turn into
a double arrow.
 Click and drag the column border to the right to increase column width.
Dragging the border to the left will decrease column width.

2.3.4.2 To autosize a column's width:

 The autosizing feature will allow you to set a column's width to fit its
content automatically.
 However the mouse over the line between two columns. The cursor will turn into
a double arrow.
  Double-click the mouse.

 The column's width will be changed to fit the content.

2.3.4.3 To modify row height:

 You can make cells taller by modifying the row height. Changing the row height
will create additional space in a cell.
 However, the mouse over the line between two rows. The cursor will turn into
a double arrow.

2.3.4.4 To modify all rows or columns:

 Rather than resizing rows and columns individually, you can modify the height
and width of every row and column in a spreadsheet at the same time using
the Select All button.
 This method allows you to set a uniform size for the spreadsheet's rows and
columns.
 2.4 Create Formulas

2.4.1 Formulas in Excel

• In Microsoft Excel formulas begins with an equal sign. The equal sign tells
Excel that the succeeding characters constitute a formula.
• If user doesn’t enter the equal sign, Excel will treat users’ entry as text and
the calculation will fail.

2.4.2 Cell References in Formulas

There are two types of cell references: relative and absolute. Functionalities of Relative
and absolute references behave differently when copied and paste to other cells.
a. Relative references change when a formula is copied to another cell.
b. An absolute reference remains same, no matter where ever they are copied.

2.4.2.1 Relative references

To create and copy a formula using relative references:
In the following example, if user wants to create a formula that will multiply each item's
price by the quantity. Instead of creating a new formula for each row, user can create a
single formula in cell D4 and then copy it to the other rows. We'll use relative
references so the formula calculates the total for each item correctly.
1. Select the cell that will contain the formula. In our example, we'll select cell D4.

2. Enter the formula to calculate the desired value. In this example, type =B4*C4.

3. Once pressed enter key the formula will be calculated, and the result will be
displayed in the cell.
4. Locate the fill handle in the bottom-right corner of the desired cell. In our
example, we'll locate the fill handle for cell D4.
5. Click and drag the fill handle over the cells user wants to fill. In this example, select
cells D5:D13.

6. The formula will be copied to the selected cells with relative references, displaying
the result in each cell

2.4.2.2 Absolute references

To create and copy a formula using absolute references:

In the below example, user will use cell E2 to calculate the sales tax for each item
in column D. User will need to make $E$2 an absolute reference to make sure the
reference to the tax rate stays constant, even when the formula is copied and filled to
other cells.
1. Select the cell that will contain the formula. In this example, cell D4 is selected.
2. Enter the formula to calculate the desired value. In this example, we’ll type
=(B4*C4)*$E$2, making $E$2 an absolute reference.

3. After entering the Enter keyword. The formula will calculate, and the result will
display in the cell.
4. Locate the fill handle in the bottom-right corner of the desired cell. In this example,
fill handle is located for cell D4.

5. Click and drag the fill handle over the cells user wants to fill. In this its cell
D5:D13.
 6. The formula will be copied to the selected cells with an absolute reference, and the
values will be calculated in each cell once mouse key is released.

The SUM and AVERAGE functions

What is the SUM Function?
 In MS Excel SUM function adds all numbers in a range of cells and returns the
result.
 The SUM function is a built-in function in Excel that is categorized as
a Math/Trigonometric Function.

Syntax
The syntax for the SUM function in Microsoft Excel is:
SUM( number1, [number2, ... number_n] )
OR
SUM ( cell1:cell2, [cell3:cell4], ... )
How to use the SUM Function in Excel?

Example 1
Suppose we are given the following data:

User wishes to find out the total sales for the first six months. The formula to be used is:

We get the result below:

What is Average Function?
 AVERAGE function in Ms-Excel is categorized under Excel Statistical functions.
 It will calculate the average value of a given series of numbers in Excel.
 Arithmetic mean of a given set of arguments in Excel is calculated with average
function.
Formula
=AVERAGE(number1, [number2], …)
How to use AVERAGE Function in Excel?
To understand the uses of the AVERAGE function, let us consider below example:
Suppose following data is given:

To find out the top 3 scores in the above data set. The formula to use will be:

We get the result below:

More About Functions
• In Excel functions are pre -defined formulas.
• Functions differ from regular formulas in that, after the equal sign, user supply
the cell addresses but not the arithmetic operators.
• Functions can be used to perform simple or complex calculations.
• Functions perform calculations by using specific values, called arguments, in a
particular order called syntax.
 Use an equal sign to begin the function.
 Specify the function name.
 Enclose all of the function’s arguments within parentheses.
 Use a comma to separate the function’s individual arguments.

Common functions
Let's look at some of the most commonly used functions in ms excel formulas.
Numeric Functions

String Function
Date Time Functions

These functions are used to manipulate date values. The following table shows some of
the common date functions.

2.5 VLOOKUP: What it is and When TO Use it

What is VLOOKUP?
 The VLOOKUP function is one of the most popular functions in Excel.
 The VLOOKUP function performs a vertical lookup by searching for a value in
the first column of a table and returning the value in the same row in the index
number position.
 The VLOOKUP function is a built-in function in Excel that is categorized as
a Lookup/Reference Function. It can be used as a worksheet function (WS) in
Excel.
 The syntax for the VLOOKUP function in Microsoft Excel is:
VLOOKUP(value, table, index_number, [approximate_match] )
Parameters or Arguments
1. Value: The value to search for in the first column of the table.
2. Table: Two or more columns of data that is sorted in ascending order.
3. index number: The column number in table from which the matching value must
be returned. The first column is 1
4. approximate match: Optional. Enter FALSE to find an exact match. Enter TRUE
to find an approximate match. If this parameter is omitted, TRUE is the default.

Example (as Worksheet Function)

1. First Parameter
 The first parameter in the VLOOKUP function is the value to search for in the
table of data.

 In this example, the first parameter is 10251. This is the value that the
VLOOKUP will search for in the first column of the table of data because it is a
numeric value, user can just enter the number.
 But if the search value was text, user would need to put it in double quotes.

2. Second Parameter
 The second parameter in the VLOOKUP function is the table or the source of
data where the vertical lookup should be performed.

 In this example, the second parameter is A1:B6 which gives two columns to data
to use in the vertical lookup - A1:A6 and B1:B6.
 The first column in the range (A1:A6) is used to search for the Order value of
10251. The second column in the range (B1:B6) contains the value to return
which is the Product value.

3. Third Parameter
 The third parameter is the position number in the table where the return data can
be found. A value of 1 indicates the first column in the table. The second column
is 2, and so on.

 In this example, the third parameter is 2. This means that the second column in
the table is where we will find the value to return.
 Since the table range is set to A1:B6, the return value will be in the second
column somewhere in the range B1:B6.
4. Fourth Parameter
  Finally, and most importantly is the fourth or last parameter in the VLOOKUP.
This parameter determines whether users looking for an exact match or
approximate match.

 In this example, the fourth parameter is FALSE. A parameter of FALSE means

that VLOOKUP is looking for an EXACT match for the value of 10251.
 A parameter of TRUE means that a "close" match will be returned. Since the
VLOOKUP is able to find the value of 10251 in the range A1:A6, it returns the
corresponding value from B1:B6 which is Pears.

Using More Than One Spreadsheet with VLOOKUP

 In general, we will get data in multiple worksheets, and having all the information
in the single sheets itself is not possible in 99% of the cases.
 When the data scattered to different worksheets, it is not that easy to move
between sheets and pull the data from different sheets.
 When we are pulling the data, VLOOKUP is vital, you don’t have to try to fetch
the data from one worksheet to another.
 However, in VLOOKUP it is easy to fetch the data from different sheets.
Below is an example of how to use VLOOKUP with different sheets on
excel.

Look at the below data in excel.

There are two tables, “Data Table” and “Result Table.”

 In “Data Table, there are the values, and in “Result Table,” user has only Employee
Name, so based on this, we need to fetch other details like “DOJ, Dept, and Salary.”
 To fetch DOJ, open the VLOOKUP function in the G3 cell.

 The first argument is Lookup Value, so our lookup value is Employee Name, so
select F3 cell.

 Table Array will be the “Data Table” range from A3 to D11.

 Once user has selected the Table Array, make it an absolute reference by
pressing the F4 key.

 Next up is the col index num, so from the table array selection column number
will be 2nd column, so mention the same.

 Next is Range Lookup. We have two options, i.e., TRUE or FALSE. Since we
need an exact match to give the criteria as FALSE or 0

 Ok, now it’s done. Close the bracket and hit the enter key to get the result.
 User has got DOJ, copy the formula and paste to the next cell. This time user need
not apply the formula again. User just needs to change the column index number
from 2 to 3.

 Similarly, for the “Salary” column, change the column number to 4.

Avoiding VLOOKUP Errors

 One limitation when using VLOOKUP is that it can easily return the wrong data
when the information in the table array gets rearranged.
  Adding or deleting a column can mess up user’s data because VLOOKUP uses
the column number when it formulates its answer.
 The error which we get is #N/A error.

2.6 Sparklines- Use Tiny Charts to Show Data Trends

2.6.1 Introduction To Sparklines

Sparkline in Excel is a small graph which is used to represent a series of data. Sparkline
fits into a single cell, apart from a well-fledged chart. It is an instant chart that prepares
for a range of values. Three different data visualizations available in Excel Sparkline
are:

1. Line
2. Column
3. Win/Loss

Sparklines in Excel is used to showcase the data trend for a while.

2.6.2 Types of Sparklines

From the Insert menu, select the type of Sparkline you want. It offers three types of
Sparklines in Excel.

1. Line Sparkline: Line Sparkline in Excel will be in the form of lines, and high values
will indicate fluctuations in height difference.
2. Column Sparkline: Column Sparkline in Excel will be in the form of column chart
or bar chart. Each bar shows each value.
3. Win/Loss Sparkline: It is mainly used to show negative values like ups and downs
on the floated costs.
 How to insert Sparklines in Excel?
Consider the following demo data: Status of some pending stock for different years is
below. To make a quick analysis, let's make a Sparkline for each year.

Step 1) Select the next column to 'June' and insert Sparkline from insert menu. Select
anyone from the three types of Sparkline.

Step 2) A selection window will appear to select the range of cells for which the Sparkline
should insert.

By clicking the arrow near data range box, a range of cells can be chosen.
Step 3) Select the first row of the data for the year 2011 in 'Data Range' text box. The
range will show as B2: G2

Step 4) Another range selection indicates where you want to insert the Sparkline. Give
the address of the cell you need the Sparkline.

Step 5) Once you set the 'Data Range' and 'Location Range' press 'OK' button.
Step 6) Now Sparkline is created for the selected data, and it gets inserted in the
selected cell H3.

2.7 Use Excel Table to Manage Information

2.7.1 Introduction to Tables

 Tables allows user to analyze user’s data in Excel quickly and easily. Learn how to
insert, sort and filter a table, and how to display a total row at the end of a table.

Insert a Table
To insert a table, execute the following steps.
1. Click any single cell inside the data set.
2. On the Insert tab, in the Tables group, click Table.

3. Excel automatically selects the data for user. Check “My table has headers’ and
click on OK.

4. After releasing the key, the result appears as below:

2.7.2 Sort, Filter and Remove Duplicates
1. Sort
To sort by Last Name first and Sales second, execute the following steps.
1. Click the arrow next to Sales and click Sort Smallest to Largest.
2. Click the arrow next to Last Name and click Sort A to Z.

2. Filter a Table
To filter a table, execute the following steps.
1. Click the arrow next to Country and only check USA.
3. Find and remove duplicates
 Sometimes duplicate data is useful, sometimes it just makes it harder to
understand user’s data. Use conditional formatting to find and highlight duplicate
data.
 That way you can review the duplicates and decide if user wants to remove them.
1. Select the cells you want to check for duplicates.
2. Click Home > Conditional Formatting > Highlight Cells Rules > Duplicate
Values.

3. In the box next to values with, pick the formatting you want to apply to the
duplicate values, and then click OK.
Remove duplicate values
 When you use the Remove Duplicates feature, the duplicate data will be
permanently deleted.
 Select the range of cells that has duplicate values you want to remove.
 Click Data > Remove Duplicates, and then Under Columns, check or uncheck
the columns where you want to remove the duplicates.

 So unchecked January in the Remove Duplicate box.

  Click on OK option.

2.8 The IF Function

2.8.1 Introduction to IF function

 The use of IF function is to check whether a condition is met, and returns one
value if true and another value if false
 The function IF runs a logical test and returns one value for a TRUE result, and
another for a FALSE result.
 It allows user to make logical comparisons between value and what the user
expects so the IF function is considered to be one of the most popular functions
in Excel.
 IF statement can have two results the first states the user’s comparison is True
and the second comparison is False.

Syntax
The syntax for the IF function in Microsoft Excel is:
IF ( condition, value_if_true, [value_if_false] )
Parameters or Arguments
 Condition : The value that you want to test.
 value_if_true : It is the value that is returned if condition evaluates to TRUE.
 value_if_falseOptional: It is the value that is returned if condition evaluates to
FALSE.

Returns
 The IF function returns value_if_true when the condition is TRUE.
 The IF function returns value_if_false when the condition is FALSE.
 The IF function returns FALSE if the value_if_false parameter is omitted and the
condition is FALSE.
When using the IF function to construct a test, we can use the following logical
operators:
  = (equal to)
 > (greater than)
 >= (greater than or equal to)
 < (less than)
 <= (less than or equal to)
 <> (not equal to)

2.8.2 Add or Multiply IF Results

 How to use Excel IF function with multiple conditions?
 IF function should embed an AND or OR function in the logical test,
respectively.
1. AND function: If user logical test contains the AND function, Microsoft Excel
returns TRUE if all the conditions are met; otherwise it returns FALSE.
2. OR function: In case user uses the OR function in the logical test, Excel returns
TRUE if any of the conditions is met; FALSE otherwise.

Example 1. Using IF & AND function in Excel

 Suppose, user is having a table with the results of two exam scores. The first
score, stored in column C, must be equal to or greater than 20. The second score,
listed in column D, must be equal to or exceed 30. Only when both of the above
conditions are met, a student can the final exam.
IF/AND formula:
=IF((AND(C2>=20, D2>=30)), "Pass", "Fail")
Example 2. Using IF with OR function in Excel
The OR Function is return true if atleast one value is true the condition is met.
So, if we modify the above formula in the following way:
=IF((OR(C2>=20, D2>=30)), "Pass", "Fail")

Using multiple IF statements in Excel (nested IF functions)

 These multiple IF functions are called nested IF functions and they may prove
particularly useful if user wants user formula to return 3 or more different results.
 =IF((C2+D2)>=60, "Good", IF((C2+D2)=>40, "Satisfactory", "Poor "))
OR
=IF(SUM(C2:F2)>=120, "Good", IF(SUM(C2:F2)>=90, "Satisfactory",
"Poor "))
  Consider the above figure
 User can nest more IF functions if user want to. For example:
 =IF(E2>=70, "Excellent", IF(E2>=60, "Good", IF(E2>40, "Satisfactory",
"Poor ")))

2.9 How to Create a Basic Chart in Excel

2.9.1 Introduction to Chart

 It can be difficult to interpret Excel workbooks that contain a lot of data.
 Charts allow user to illustrate user’s workbook data graphically, which makes it
easy to visualize comparisons and trends.
 Excel has several different types of charts, allowing user to choose the one that
best fits your data.

2.9.2 How Spreadsheet Data Appears in A Chart

1. Select the cells user want to chart, including the column titles and row labels.
These cells will be the source data for the chart. In this example, selected cells
are A1:F6.
2. From the Insert tab, click the desired Chart command. In this example, Column
is selected.

3. Choose the desired chart type from the drop-down menu.

4. The Selected chart will be inserted into the worksheet.

2.9.3 Change the Chart View
1. Select the Design tab.
2. Click the More drop-down arrow in the Chart Layouts group to see all of
the available layouts.

3. Select the desired layout.

4. The chart will update to reflect the new layout.

2.9.4 Add Chart Titles

 Excel allows user to add chart elements—such as chart titles, legends, and data
labels—to make user chart easier to read.
  To add a chart element, click the Add Chart Element command on
the Design tab, then choose the desired element from the drop-down menu.

 To edit a chart element, like a chart title, simply double-click

the placeholder and begin typing

2.9.5 Changing the Look of Your Chart

1. Select the Design tab.
2. Click the More drop-down arrow in the Chart Styles group to see all of the
available styles.
 3. Select the desired style.

4. The chart will update to reflect the new style.

2.9.6 More Chart Types

1. The Pie Graph

 As the name suggests, the pie graph is a display of data in the form of a pie or circle.
 This graph type is used for showing proportions of a whole.
 For example, if we want to compare who did how much work in a team, we would
use a pie graph to display it in an easy way to understand.

2. The Column or Bar Graph

 The next one in the list is a column graph, also called a bar graph in statistics.
 We use these different types of graphs where we need to see and compare values
across a range. The same data that we used in the pie graph example would look like
this:

3. The Line Graph

 The next type of graph we are going to discuss is called a line graph.
 This type of graph is used when we need to visualize data like an increasing or
decreasing series over a period.
 This is an excellent graph in Excel to use for representing trends and comparing
performance.

4. The Area Graph

 The area graph is available within the line graph menu.
 This is used for the same purpose as the line graph, which visualizes trends and
compares data. In this example, it represents the relationship between the number of
datasets worked on by an analyst and the number of hours they worked.
5. The Scatter Graph
 The Scatter graph is a simple representation of data points in excel.
 It is used when we need to compare at least two sets of data with a limited number of
data points.

2.10 Save Time by Creating and Running Macros

2.10.1 Create and Run Macros

 User can use macros in Excel to save time by automating tasks that user performs
frequently.
