RE: Excel Format

Hi Joanna,

Hope you enjoyed the training today.

Sometimes if you type in numbers with symbols like / or : Excel automatically formats them into Date or Time.

To keep these numeric data as you type, simply click on FORMAT menu -> CELLS -> NUMBER tab -> General or Text

Regards,

katie

Excel tip:

Autonumber in Excel

To create an autonumber field, can use the Offset() function.

In cell A1, enter the number 1.
Then in cell A2, enter this formula:

=OFFSET(A2,-1,0)+1

Then copy the formula from cell A2, down as far as you need.
