AutoSum

Exactly how does this work that can benefit someone who will be doing many calculations.

RE: AutoSum

Hello Michael

Thank you for your question and welcome to the forum.

The AutoSum button will insert the SUM function into a spreadsheet for you, which is useful if you want to add together a large range of numbers. This will save time as the alternative would be to construct a formula with a lot of + signs.

Excel tip:

Entering text in Multiple Worksheets

If you have a number of worksheets in a workbook that require the same information (data or tables) on each worksheet, this can be done as follows:

Hold down the Ctrl key and click one or more of the additional worksheet tabs (i.e. Sheet2, Sheet3, etc).

In your mainsheet (Sheet1) enter the required data or design a table.

When done 'Click' on the other sheet tabs and you will see that the information entered in Sheet1 is on all the other selected worksheets.

NB Do not forget to deselect the worksheets - otherwise you may add data to the main worksheet and all the selected worksheets will also have that data!
