How do your create formulas?

RE: Formulas

You can either type it directly in a cell and you can click on particular cells you want to include in the formula and they will automatically be added. For example, type =SUM( into a cell and then click on a number field. You will end up with something as follows:
=SUM(F17,E20)

You can also go to View and select formula bar to show the formula bar. Click on the little = sign next to the white box and you can get help with formulas. There are lots of different kinds of formulas so best to decide what you want to do and ask us.

Excel tip:

Use the Format Painter to copy formatting more than once in Excel

The format painter tool provides a quick and easy way to copy formatting from one cell to another in Word.

The only problem is that if you click the Format Painter once to turn it on, you can only click and drag over a single cell or adjacent range of cells; then the Format Painter turns itself off automatically.

If you want to copy formatting to cells or groups of cells that are not adjacent to each other, double-click the Format Painter - this way you will be able to copy formatting to multiple cells.

When you have finished using Format Painter, press the Esc key or click on the Format Painter button once to turn it off.
