You don’t need the mouse to highlight or move text from one cell to another.  Paste Special, which illustrates how to copy data, formatting, and even formulas from one cell to another with a quick keyboard shortcut. 

Working with Text

What if you put the first and last name of each client in one cell, but want to divide them into two cells? If you have 200 clients in one Excel spreadsheet it could take hours. Do you have to copy and paste text from one cell to another? Not with Intermediate Excel functions! 

Split Text from one cell into multiple cells by using the ribbon and Join Text from multiple cells into a single cell with CONCATENATE and the ampersand “&”.  You can also make calculations easier by using Named Ranges to classify an individual cell or a range of cells.

Keeping your data organized is essential to perform calculations and other data functions in Excel. Data Validation formats cells with a drop-down menu, thereby restricting the data that can be entered into a cell.  

Sort & Filter will show you how to organize and search your data efficiently. Remove Duplicates demonstrates Excel’s ability to quickly examine a set of data and eliminate any duplicate rows.  

Database Functions

Database Functions help you find data within the Excel worksheet quickly. For example, you may look up a product code, and return the name or the cost of that product.  The VLOOKUP is easily considered the second most important skill in Excel and helps you find data within columns.  HLOOKUP is used to find data within rows. 

Logical Functions

Logical functions help you find data that meets certain criteria. For example, with the IF statement you can design a true/false test and designate specific actions to perform for both true and false results.  This powerful ability allows a single cell to offer two different outcomes.  AND/OR functions build on the basic True/False property by implementing multiple logical tests to determine in a statement is true.  

Pivot Tables

Pivot Tables are easily the most-sought-after skill in Excel.  Pivot Tables are another way to analyze data in Excel through both consolidation and analysis. With the Grouping technique, you can consolidate row and column data into groups.  You can also create Multiple Pivot Tables on the same worksheet page.

Statistical Functions and Advanced Charts

It’s hard to keep track of data within large datasets. The RANK.EQ, COUNTIFS, and SUMIFS provide additional information on data position and count within an Excel worksheet. Combo Charts are a unique visualization tool that allows Excel users to combine two charts.
