Some shortcuts and tips can often appear Magical! Here are a few of my current favorites:
Select Noncontiguous Cells
If you want to select noncontiguous cells in a worksheet, just hold down the CTRL key and click on the cells you wish to select. Presto!
Enter Strings Starting with Zero
Sometimes, as in the case with zip codes, you want to enter strings of numbers that start with zero. To do this, simply type an apostrophe first. Alacazam!
Rearrange Rows and Columns
So, you have your data are in rows and you want them in columns (or vice versa)? Highlight the cells that have your data, right-click, copy, and choose Paste Special. Then check the "Transpose" box. Voila!
A Room with a View
Feeling a bit cramped when viewing your spreadsheet? You can hide columns or rows you don't need to be visible by right-clicking and selecting “Hide”. Any functions tied to data in the hidden areas will still operate fine. Open Sesame!
Instant Chart
Impress your friends and family by making an instant chart. Simply select your data and click F11. Magic!
I hope you have a Magical (and safe) Holiday Season!
