Excel Formulas

I would like to know how you use an adding formula for scattered cells. For example, I am doing weekly reports and at the end of the month I want to ad the four weeks expenditure: G27 + G31 + G34 + G39.

Could you also tell me how you enter a pound/euro sign in the relevant cells?

Could you also tell me the procedure for printing data on the one page?

Thanks
Regards
Matt

RE: Excel Formulas

Hi Matt
Thank you for your questions

To use the sum function to add non adjacent (Scattered) ranges.

Select the cell where the formula is to go, and insert a function from the insert menu. Type sum in the search box and press enter. You will then be prompted to enter a cell or range. Enter the first cell. Once done another range box will appear below; enter the next range in that box. Repeat until all cells have been entered and click OK.

To place the pound/euro sign, select the relevant cells, and then click on format cells from the format menu. Choose currency and then select the relevant currency symbol from the combo box.

To print the data on one page, simply go to page set up on the file menu, and select the option for fitting the sheet to one page.

Hope this helps

Regards

Stephen

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.
