Excel intermediate-formulas

if there is a large document and there is an error with a formula, how do you know where the problem is and which formula is the wrong one...

RE: excel intermediate-formulas

Hi Anila

Hope you are well, as for your question about tracing errors, you may remember from the course yesterday, when an error comes up with a formula one of two things happen either you will get an error message, or your will see something the word value in the cell when you press enter

How to find out where the error is, is by getting the formula auditing toolbar, and when you have this click the trace errors button

Hope this helps you if you need anymore help either post another question on the forum or you could email me on mark@stl-training.co.uk

Excel tip:

Create your own custom list on Excel 2010!

If you know how to use the auto-fill option on Excel then why not create your own customs lists?

The auto fill feature saves you time by allowing you to enter one of the list entries into a cell and then use your mouse to automatically drag the rest of the list into the cells below, above or to either side of the initial cell. When using your mouse to perform this task you will see a thin black cross appear at the bottom right hand side of the cell. Click, hold and drag to make the list appear.

Default lists include weekdays and months. To create your own list in Excel 2010 do the following;

>File
>Options
>Advanced
>Scroll right to the bottom of the page and you will see a buttom "edit custom lists", click this button
>enter your list in the list entries
>click add

Now try it out. Good luck.
