If your job is to compile list of attendees with colunm for first name, surname and email then how do I input them easier than copy and paste? Using CSV file?

RE: Lists

Dear Sukhy

Thank you for attending Excel Intermediate course!! I hope you enjoyed the course and benefited from it.

When you say copy and paste is it from another Excel file or another program?

Normally you can import Excel file by using Data > Import > Get External Data > Import data from the Menu bar. You don't have to save it as a csv file.

Even if you are importing the data from MS Access you can choose Data > Import > Get External Data > New Database query.

Note that the data can be linked so you can refresh and the new data will automatically get updated.

If you want to do bit more advanced where you want to ensure that every time the data gets imported it shouldn't get duplicated and so on then we do cover basics of Macros but I think for doing the above mentioned you'll have to have understanding of VBA which is the course many delegates attend after doing our advanced course.

Please find the following link which provides you more information about the other topics that are covered in Excel Advanced as well as the schedule for the upcoming Excel Advanced courses:

I hope this has answered your query.

If this has answered your query then I would request you to please mark the question as resolved!! If not and you have a specific question related to this then please post it as a new question and we should be able to provide you the solution for it!!

Kindest Regards

Excel tip:

Repeating headings on spreadsheets that print on more than one page

By default when you print a spreadsheet out and it prints on more than one page, the headings at the top and the side of the spreadsheet don't appear on all the pages following page 1.

To get Excel to repeat headings on all pages when printing, go to File - Page Setup - Sheet, then select the rows to repeat at the top of pages, and the columns to repeat at the side of pages by clicking on the red arrows at the right side of the two boxes under the 'Print titles' area. Then click OK.

If you view your spreadsheet in Print Preview, you should see the headings being repeated on each page.
