Did you know you can add a background image to any spreadsheet?

No?

Here's how...

  • Select Format > Sheet > Background from the menu.
  • Find the image you want and click Open to select it.
  • The image will tile to fit the worksheet.

Did you know you can change your cursor's default direction when you press the Enter key in a cell?

By default Excel moves the cursor to the next row and cell below the currently selected cell.

To change this:

Select Tools > Options from the menu and click on the Edit tab.

Select the drop-down list titled "Move Selection after Entry" to change the direction that occurs when you hit Enter.

This is a very handy one...

Did you know you can enter more than one line of data in a cell?

No?

Here's how...

  • Select the cell to enter data and type something.
  • When you've finished entering data press and hold the Alt key and press the Enter key.  This places a new line inside the cell.  Now you can type another line of date.  Very useful for addresses.
  • If you don't want line breads, you can have multiple lines in a given cell is by clicking cells from the Format menu.
  • Click on the Alignment tab and enable Wrap Text.
  • Entering data wider than the column width will then wrap on the next line.
