Insert Data
If we want to write something in the cell, we can just select the
assigned cell and write the content through the white space
located at the top of the cells. Kindly check sample below:

This page is called “sheet”, and we can add new sheets by

pressing the plus sign (+) located beside it
By double clicking the sheet tab, we can edit the name of the
sheet as what shown below:

We can also change the order of sheets by dragging the sheets

into a different order or position
We can also adjust the size of the sheets if we want to take a
closer look at the data by adjusting the plus and minus sign
located at the lower right of the sheet
Wrap Text
Click the Wrap Text function to indent a phrase or sentence in
the cell/s. Example:

Merge and Center

Click the Merge and Center function in the Home tab and it will
create a centered title for the sheet. Example:

To perform the Merge and Center function,

 insert a new row above the table.
 Write down the title of the table.
 Select the upper cells that cover the entire table
 Hit Merge and Center
Dollar Sign
To add dollar sign to a row or column with monetary value, just
hit the Dollar Sign in the Home tab.

Excel As Calculator
Select the cell, and write
down the equal sign,
followed by formula, into
the empty field located at
the top of the sheet.

We can also create a new column that contains the value of an

equation. Let say, we want to get the quotient of the
contribution and the income. To perform this, we will put equal
sign (=) into the cell, and select the income cell, then put
operation sign (add, divide, multiply, subtract) and then hit the
cell of the contribution. The assigned cell will display the
formula of the selected cells, and once we press Enter, the
quotient value will display.

If we want to get all the values for the entire column, we can
just press small box at the lower right of the cell and then drag
it down to the bottom of the column.
Freeze Panes

This function is located under the View Tab. This function helps
us to freeze a specific row or column so that we should not get
lose track while we’re navigating throughout the entire sheets no
matter how far it is from the first row or from the first column.

Auto Sum

This function is located under the Formula Tab. This function

gets the sum of numerical values inside the cells. Click the
AutoSum first, and then select a cell where the sum will be put
into. Then, select or highlight the target cells, then press
Enter.

Average
This is a function under the AutoSum function. It gets the average of
all the values in a column. Just highlight all the values and click
the Average function.

Recommended Chart
This is the function that transformed the data into a chart. To use
the Recommended Chart, just select the set of data or columns that
will consist the chart by pressing the Control key on the keyboard,
highlight the columns. After highlighting the columns, then go to
Insert Tab and select the Recommended chart function.

The chart also has additional features on its side where we can put
labels on the data

To choose a design for the chart, you can go to the Design tab and
select your design
Auto-Filling
Auto-filling simplifies our typing tasks because it will automatically
fill up cells. To perform auto-filling, choose a cell to begin with,
then type a day of the week or a month of the year. Highlight the
following cells, either horizontal or vertical direction, and Excel
will automatically fill up the highlighted cells with the rest of the
days and months.
To use auto-fill up for numbers, just select at least two cells
(either horizontal or vertical directions) and fill it up with numbers
1 and 2. Highlight the remaining cells (either horizontal or vertical
directions), and Excel will automatically complete the set of numbers.

But auto filling is not only for months, days or numbers. Auto-filling
can also be used if you want to display, actually, all type of files
or list that you have. For example, we have a set of data in a table
here,
What we will do is to copy all the data into a different table column
by column. To do this,

 Go to file
 Select Option
 Select Advance
 Scroll down all the way to the bottom and look for Edit Custom
List
 Click Edit Custom List

 Click OK
 Click Add
 Click the arrow beside the Import button
 Highlight the selected files/ columns

 Hit Enter
 Click Import button
 Click OK
 Click OK again
 Select a cell where you want to begin the display of data
  Type the first data on the list
 Pull down the tiny square at the lower right of the cell to
fill up the cells that will make up the entire column
