MS EXCEL

Worksheet

MS EXCEL A Worksheet is a single page containing

a collection of cells where the user can
store, update and manipulate the data.
Worksheet is also called a spreadsheet. It
is made up of rows, columns and cells.
NOTE: An Excel workbook can
contain several worksheets.

In Excel, individual data cells in a

worksheet are defined and organized
with the help of the vertical column and
horizontal row that are combined to form
a cell reference, unlike A1, B25, or
R867.

 CELLS
Cells are small rectangular boxes in the worksheet

and column. It is identified by row number and column
header. In Excel, each cell is identified using a set of
coordinates or positions, such as A1 (where A represents
a column and 1 represents the row), B2, or M16.
You can perform several operations with cells in Excel,
unlike changing the font style, font size, background
color, text alignment, format painter, wrap text, and
conditional formatting.
• EXCEL PROVIDES THE FEATURE TO SELECT MULTIPLE CELLS AT ONE TIME. A
GROUP OF SELECTED CELLS IS COLLECTIVELY KNOWN AS CELL RANGE. WITH
CELL RANGE INSTEAD OF A SINGLE CELL ADDRESS, THE USER REFERS TO A CELL
RANGE UTILIZING THE CELL ADDRESSES OF THE
SELECTED FIRST AND LAST CELLS, SEPARATED BY A COLON. FOR INSTANCE, A
CELL RANGE COVERING B2, B3, B4, B5, B6, B7, B8, B9, AND B10 WOULD BE
ADDRESSED AS B1:B10.
Cell Range: B1: B10
