MICROSOFT EXCEL

 Microsoft Excel is a spreadsheet developed by Microsoft for Windows, macOS, Android and iOS. It features
calculation, graphing tools, pivot tables, and a macro programming language called Visual Basic for
Applications (VBA). It has been a very widely applied spreadsheet for these platforms, especially since version 5
in 1993, and it has replaced Lotus 1-2-3 as the industry standard for spreadsheets. Excel forms part of the
Microsoft Office suite of software.
 Excel is a computer program use to create electronic spreadsheets.
 User can organize data, create chart and perform calculations.
 Excel operates like other Microsoft Office programs and has many of the same functions and shortcuts of other MS
programs.
EARLY HISTORY

 Microsoft Excel has been around since 1982, first introduced as Multiplan, a very popular CP/M (Control Program
for Microcomputers), but lost popularity on MS-DOS systems to Lotus 1-2-3. In
1987, Microsoft introduced Excel v2. 0 for Windows and by 1988 began to outsell Lotus 1-2-3 and the emerging
QuatroPro.
• In 1993, Microsoft released Excel v5.0 for Windows which included VBA (Visual Basic for Applications), aka Macros. This
opened up almost unlimited possibilities in automation of repetitive tasks for crunching numbers, process automation, and
presenting data for businesses. 
MAIN FEATURES

 Add Header and Footer


 MS Excel allows us to keep the header and footer in our spreadsheet document.
 Find and Replace Command
 MS Excel allows us to find the needed data (text and numbers) in the workbook and also replace the existing data with a new
one.
 Password Protection
 It allows the user to protect their workbooks by using a password from unauthorized access to their information.
 Data Filtering
 Filtering is a quick and easy way to find and work with a subset of data in a range. A filtered range displays only the rows that
meet the criteria you specify for a column. MS Excel provides two commands for filtering ranges:
 Advanced Filter; for more complex criteria
 AutoFilter; which includes filter by selection, for simple criteria
MAIN FEATURES
 Data Sorting
 Data sorting is the process of arranging data in some logical order. MS Excel allows us to sort data either in ascending or descending
order.
 Built-in formulae
 MS Excel has got many built-in formulae for sum, average, minimum, etc. We can use those formulae as per our needs.
 Create different charts (Pivot Table Report)
 MS Excel allows us to create different charts such as bar graph, pie- charts, line graphs, etc. This helps us to analyze and compare data
very easily.
 Automatically edits the result
 MS Excel automatically edits the result if any changes are made in any of the cells.
 Formula Auditing
 Using formula auditing we can graphically display or trace the relationships between cells and formulas with blue arrows. We can trace
the precedents (the cells that provide data to a specific cell) or the dependents (the cells that depend on the value in a specific cell).
OVERVIEW

workbooks, there is an infinite number of worksheets.

worksheets within a workbook.
