ia el Unit-2 Electronic Spreadsheet (Advanced ADVANCED FEATURES OF SPREADSHEET Data is one of the most important sources for analyzing or getting proper information. Generally, while working in office we get data under different fields but this data may be related to each other. Such data is kept in numerous worksheets but it is useful when the related data can be compared, edited or manipulated. It becomes necessary to merge different data in single sheet. Spreadsheet package is of great help in sharing, merging, referencing, hyperlinking, consolidating, etc. HE CONSOLIDATING DATA During this process, the ‘Data Consolidation’ function takes data from a series of worksheets or workbooks and summaries it into a single worksheet.

Goal Seek works in the reverse way. it "starts with the desired result and it calculates the input value accordingly. Let's discuss about the various components of the ‘Goal Seek’ window: Formula Cell “Inthe forma cell we can enter the reference of the cell which contains the formula. It contains the curent cell reference. We can click another cell in the sheet to apply its reference to the text box. Target Value Variable Cell It specifies the reference for the cell that contains the value you want to adjust in order to reach the target. Shrink/Maximize We can click the ‘Shrink’ icon to reduce the dialog box to the size of the input field. It is then easier to mark the required reference in the sheet. The icon is then automatically converted to the ‘Maximize’ icon. Clicking it restores the dialog box to its original size. The dialog box is automatically minimized when you click on the sheet with the mouse. As soon as you release the mouse button, the dialog box is restored and the reference range is highlighted in the document by a blue frame using mouse. Let's take an example where a student is currently scoring 67.5% aggregate and needs at least 80% to qualify for yearly scholarship. Fortunately, he has a chance to use his Computer subject's score to raise the aggregate. Here, Goal Seek can be used to estimate at least how much marks are to be scored in Computer subject for availing that scholarship. Step 1: Step 2: Select ‘Goal Seek’ option.

Setting Up Multiple Worksheets Every workbook contains at least one worksheet by default. While working with a large amount of data, multiple worksheets can be created to organize the workbook and make it easier to find data. Worksheet can also be grouped to quickly add information to multiple worksheets at the same time. By default, every workbook contains a sheet named 'Sheetl’ which is managed using tabs at the bottom of the spreadsheet, as shown below: Sheet Tab z Touchpad Information Technology-X D I c x PRODUCT QUANTITY PROFIT PER PRODUCT OVERALL PROFIT 2 |ProductA | 2 10 3 |ProductB | 20 4 |Product C 20 350 inserting New Worksheets ‘insert new worksheet: 1; Click on the ‘insert’ menu and then click ‘Sheet’ option. 1 on step on tha’ serean n the ‘Sheet’ option. ‘Insert Sheet’ dialog box appears step 2: Select the desired position of the sheet (Le.

By default, their names are ‘Sheet!', ‘Sheet2,, 'Sheet3' and so on. These names are not very descriptive. Renaming a worksheet as per its content gives a brief idea about the stored content, For instance, if sales of different months by a salesman are stored in different worksheets, names of the sheets can be renamed by month names. worksheet: Step 1: Double-click on one of the existing worksheet names. To renam ‘Rename Sheet’ dialog box appears on the screen. Step 2: Type the desired name of the worksheet Step 3: Click on ‘OK’ button. Worksheet HICELL REFERENCE While doing calculations or summarizing data in spreadsheet, we often find ourselves in a situation to fetch data from other worksheets or even from different workbooks. This can be done by creating Cell Reference. OpenOffice Calc, there are options to link different sheets and one can fetch data from different sheets based on a common field. A cell reference refers to a cell or a range of cells on a worksheet that can be used to find the values or data. The main benefit of using a cell reference is when the data present in referenced cell(s) in another worksheet changes, a value returned by the cell reference is automatically updated. Cell Reference refers to: * Data from one or more contiguous cells on the worksheet * Data contained in different areas of a worksheet * Data on other worksheets in the same workbook creating Cell Reference to other Worksheets To create a reference for a'cell or range of calls to anoth, name of worksheet followed by a dot mark () before the reference to another worksheet, following format can be Reference to an Individual Cell Syntax: Sheet_name.Cell_address Example: To refer to cell Al in Sheet2, type ‘Sheet2.A1!

B10) eae 5 * Refers to the worksheet named ‘Marketing’, * Range of cells between B1 to B10, inclusively. * Separates the worksheet reference from the cell range reference. Notes Hf the worksheet name includes spaces or non-alphabetical characters, you must enclose itn single quotation marks. For example, a cell reference to cell Al in a worksheet named ‘January Sales’ should be written in this format: January Sales'!A1 Ways to create cell referencing to other sheets There are two ways to create cell reference to other sheets: * By entering the formula directly using the keyboard * By using the mouse Details about Sales of Stationery Items for the months of January, February and March are maintained in different worksheets.
