Sort CommandFunction : Helps to arrange data
in ascending / descending order either by date, alphabet or number.
Use : Should be used for entire selection to preserve data integrity. Can be used to sort upto 3 categories.
Fast Keys
Data selection : + + +Sort : + D +S
FilterFunction : To select a value
from drop down list or define range of values to be displayed.
Use : Can be used to filter different columns. Custom function can be used to define a range of items to be displayed.
Fast Keys Filter : +D+F+F
IF Function
Function : Helps in evaluating data based on conditions specified.
Use : IF(A1=A2,1,0)1= True , 0=False
Advanced : IF(G5>1000,VLOOKUP(E5,Sheet1!
$A$12:$C$500,3,0),0)IF(C9<40,"unsatisfactory",IF(C9<70,"
needs improvemet",IF(C9<90,"satisfactory",IF(C9<100,"exemplary"))))
AND & OR
Function : Used with IF function to enable more complicated logical comparisons.
Use: IF(OR(SUM(C3:C8)>40,AVERAGE(C
3:C8)>10),"satisfactory","unsatisfactory")= One condition True
IF(AND(SUM(C3:C8)>40,AVERAGE(C3:C8)>10),"satisfactory","unsatisfactory")= Both conditions True
Upper & Lower Case
Function : Converts the text string in Upper or Lower case
Use: Upper (Cell reference)Lower (Cell reference)
Sub Total
Function : Want to add lines with subtotals in your P&L or balance sheet, but still need to run the total over all numbers? Don’t want to get confused with nested subtotals and totals in your spreadsheet?
Use: – At each change – Can be
character, value, etc– Function – Can be count, sum,
average product of the value defined in the range above.
– Add Subtotal to : Place where subtotal is to be defined.
Round up
Function : To round off the decimals.
Use: – ROUND(Number,Digits) ==> Round
the number (or cell) to the specified number of digits
• If Digit = 0, then Number is rounded to nearest integer
• If Digit > 0, then Number is rounded to the specified number of decimal places
• If Digit < 0, then Number is rounded to the specified number of digits left of the decimal place
– ROUNDDOWN(Number,Digits) and ROUNDUP(Number,Digits) work the same way as ROUND, but the direction of rounding is specified by the function
MID Function
Function : Gives the characters from middle of text based on starting position and length
Use: – Text :Cell reference where
function is to be applied– Start number : Position of
number which is to be extracted based on count of numbers
– Num chars : Numbers of characters from the text to be extracted
– Eg : MID(B1,3,4)

Open>file location
Paste SpecialFunction : To paste either

VlookupFunctionAllows to automatically lookup a particular cell of data from a larger
data range. This is especially useful when • A large data section that contains information for multiple
records somewhere on the spreadsheet (e.g., a small database)• A calculation area somewhere else, and you need to refer to
some specific data elements for specific records Use• To look up data pertaining to a particular value.• Parameters to be defined for look up
• Value pertaining to which data is to be found• Table array within which data lookup is to be defined• Column pertaining to value where the probable lookup value is
present• Match to be exact or nearest possible
Vlookup (Cont.)
VLOOKUP(A1,Instrument_Issued! $A$1:$C$120,3,0)
Look up Value = A1Table Array =
Instrument_Isued!$A$1:$C$120
Col_index_num = 3Range = 0 (False)
Hlookup : To look up the values horizantlly, i.e. vale lying in the row.
Vlookup (Cont.)
Vlook up when there are more than one values in table array pertaining to the look up value.
A additional field should be added to look up value like date to make the look up value unique.
VLOOKUP(A1&B1,Instrument_Issued! $A$1:$C$120,3,0)
Pivot TableFunction: Most powerful tool
to arrange huge amounts of data in a more structured way than pure sorting. PivotTable report is an interactive table that quickly combines and compares large amounts of data. You can rotate its rows and columns to see different summaries of the source data, and you can display the details for areas of interest.
Use: – Select the data range for
which pivot is required.– Select Data>pivot table– Step 1 of 3 - Click Next
Pivot Table (Cont.)
Use: – Click Next (Step 2 of 3)– Data range is defined here. The
same can be changed by clicking browse
– Step 3 of 3 – Location of the pivot table needs to be specified whether in new worksheet o existing worksheet
– In case of existing worksheet cell reference from where pivot table should be made is to be specified.
– Layout of the chart and options should be defined.
Pivot Table (Cont.)Use : Layout – Page: A field that's assigned to a
page orientation in a PivotTable. You can either display a summary of all items in a page field, or display one item at a time, which filters out the data for all other items. More than one page fields can be defined.
– Row: A field that's assigned a row orientation in a PivotTable. Items associated with a row field are displayed as row labels.
– Column: A field that's assigned a column orientation in a PivotTable. Items associated with a column field are displayed as column labels.
– Data: A field from a source list, table, or database that contains data that is to be summarized in a PivotTable. A data field usually contains numeric data, such as statistics or sales amounts.
Customize ToolbarFunction : To customize the toolbar
for the functions used frequently.
Use :• View>Toolbars>customize• Click on command menu• Drag items on & off toolbars
OR• Right click toolbar area
• Select Customize• Select Commands tab in
Customize dialog box• From appropriate menu, find
the command for which you want to add button
• Drag button to location on toolbar

Protecting WorksheetFunction : Protecting a spreadsheet or
workbook involves two steps• Designating which cells to be locked or
hidden• Protecting the spreadsheet or workbook
– Please Note :• The default for all cells in a spreadsheet if
LOCKED. So if you want the receiver of your worksheet to change the content of a cell, unlock the cell before protecting the spreadsheet
• The formulas in a cell can be seen even if the spreadsheet is lock -- UNLESS you hide that cell before protecting the spreadsheet
Use :– To lock/unlock and hide/unhide a cell, select
the cell(s) and select Format : Cell. Select the Protection tab when the dialog box appears
– To protect/unprotect a spreadsheet, select Tools : Protection : Protect Sheet
