Page orienta�on refers to how output is printed on the page. If you change the orienta�on, the
onscreen page breaks adjust automa�cally to accommodate the new paper orienta�on.

Types of Page Orienta�on

• Portrait − Portrait to print tall pages (the default).

• Landscape − Landscape to print wide pages. Landscape orienta�on is useful when you have a
wide range that doesn’t fit on a ver�cally oriented page.

Changing Page Orienta�on

• Choose Page Layout » Page Setup » Orienta�on » Portrait or Landscape.


Header and Footer in Excel 2010
Header and Footer

A header is the informa�on that appears at the top of each printed page and a footer is the
informa�on that appears at the botom of each printed page. By default, new workbooks do not
have headers or footers.

Adding Header and Footer

• Choose Page Setup dialog box » Header or Footer tab.


You can choose the predefined header and footer or create your custom ones.

enabled, by default.
Insert Page Break in Excel 2010
Page Breaks

If you don’t want a row to print on a page by itself or you don't want a table header row to be the
last line on a page. MS Excel gives you precise control over page breaks.

MS Excel handles page breaks automa�cally, but some�mes you may want to force a page
break either a ver�cal or a horizontal one. so that the report prints the way you want.

For example, if your worksheet consists of several dis�nct sec�ons, you may want to print each
sec�on on a separate sheet of paper.

Inser�ng Page Breaks

Insert Horizontal Page Break − For example, if you want row 14 to be the first row of a new page,
select cell A14. Then choose Page Layout » Page Setup Group » Breaks » Insert Page Break.

Insert ver�cal Page break − In this case, make sure to place the pointer in row 1. Choose Page Layout
» Page Setup » Breaks » Insert Page Break to create the page break.
Removing Page Breaks

• Remove a page break you’ve added − Move the cell pointer to the first row beneath the
manual page break and then choose Page Layout » Page Setup » Breaks » Remove Page
Break.

• Remove all manual page breaks − Choose Page Layout » Page Setup » Breaks » Reset All
Page Breaks.

Set Background in Excel 2010

Background Image

Unfortunately, you cannot have a background image on your printouts. You may have no�ced
the Page Layout » Page Setup » Background command. This buton displays a dialogue box that lets
you select an image to display as a background. Placing this control among the other print-related
commands is very misleading. Background images placed on a worksheet are never printed.

Alterna�ve to Placing Background

• You can insert a Shape, WordArt, or a picture on your worksheet and then adjust its
transparency. Then copy the image to all printed pages.

• You can insert an object in a page header or footer.

Working with Formula
Creating Formulas in Excel 2010
Formulas in MS Excel

Formulas are the Bread and buter of worksheet. Without formula, worksheet will be just simple
tabular representa�on of data. A formula consists of special code, which is entered into a cell. It
performs some calcula�ons and returns a result, which is displayed in the cell.

Formulas use a variety of operators and worksheet func�ons to work with values and text. The
values and text used in formulas can be located in other cells, which makes changing data easy and
gives worksheets their dynamic nature. For example, you can quickly change the data in a worksheet
and formulas works.

Elements of Formulas

A formula can consist of any of these elements −

• Mathema�cal operators, such as +(for addi�on) and *(for mul�plica�on)

Example −

o =A1+A2 Adds the values in cells A1 and A2.

• Values or text

Example −

o =200*0.5 Mul�plies 200 �mes 0.15. This formula uses only values, and it always
returns the same result as 100.

• Cell references (including named cells and ranges)

Example −

o =A1=C12 Compares cell A1 with cell C12. If the cells are iden�cal, the formula
returns TRUE; otherwise, it returns FALSE.

• Worksheet func�ons (such as SUMor AVERAGE)

Example −

o =SUM(A1:A12) Adds the values in the range A1:A12.

Crea�ng Formula

For crea�ng a formula you need to type in the Formula Bar. Formula begins with '=' sign. When
building formulas manually, you can either type in the cell addresses or you can point to them in the
worksheet. Using the Poin�ng method to supply the cell addresses for formulas is o�en easier and
more powerful method of formula building. When you are using built-in func�ons, you click the cell
or drag through the cell range that you want to use when defining the func�on’s arguments in the
Func�on Arguments dialog box. See the below screen shot.

As soon as you complete a formula entry, Excel calculates the result, which is then displayed inside
the cell within the worksheet (the contents of the formula, however, con�nue to be visible on the
Formula bar any�me the cell is ac�ve). If you make an error in the formula that prevents Excel from
being able to calculate the formula at all, Excel displays an Alert dialog box sugges�ng how to fix the
problem.

Copying Formulas in Excel 2010


Copying Formulas in MS Excel

Copying formulas is one of the most common tasks that you do in a typical spreadsheet that relies
primarily on formulas. When a formula uses cell references rather than constant values, Excel makes
the task of copying an original formula to every place that requires a similar formula.

Rela�ve Cell Addresses

MS Excel does it automa�cally adjus�ng the cell references in the original formula to suit the posi�on
of the copies that you make. It does this through a system known as rela�ve cell addresses, where
by the column references in the cell address in the formula change to suit their new column posi�on
and the row references change to suit their new row posi�on.

Let us see this with the help of example. Suppose we want the sum of all the rows at last, then we
will write a formula for first column i.e. B. We want sum of the rows from 3 to 8 in the 9th row.

A�er wri�ng formula in the 9th row, we can drag it to remaining columns and the formula gets
copied. A�er dragging we can see the formula in the remaining columns as below.

• column C : =SUM(C3:C8)

• column D : =SUM(D3:D8)

• column E : =SUM(E3:E8)

• column F : =SUM(F3:F8)

• column G : =SUM(G3:G8)
Formula Reference in Excel 2010

Cell References in Formulas

Most formulas you create include references to cells or ranges. These references enable your
formulas to work dynamically with the data contained in those cells or ranges. For example, if your
formula refers to cell C2 and you change the value contained in C2, the formula result reflects new
value automa�cally. If you didn’t use references in your formulas, you would need to edit the
formulas themselves in order to change the values used in the formulas.

When you use a cell (or range) reference in a formula, you can use three types of references −
rela�ve, absolute, and mixed references.

Rela�ve Cell References

The row and column references can change when you copy the formula to another cell because the
references are actually offsets from the current row and column. By default, Excel creates rela�ve cell
references in formulas.
Absolute Cell References

The row and column references do not change when you copy the formula because the reference is
to an actual cell address. An absolute reference uses two dollar signs in its address: one for the
column leter and one for the row number (for example, $A$5).
Mixed Cell References

Both the row or column reference is rela�ve and the other is absolute. Only one of the address parts
is absolute (for example, $A5 or A$5).

Using Functions in Excel 2010

Func�ons in Formula

Many formulas you create use available worksheet func�ons. These func�ons enable you to greatly
enhance the power of your formulas and perform calcula�ons that are difficult if you use only the
operators. For example, you can use the LOG or SIN func�on to calculate the Logarithm or Sin ra�o.
You can’t do this complicated calcula�on by using the mathema�cal operators alone.

Using Func�ons

When you type = sign and then type any alphabet you will see the searched func�ons as below.
Suppose you need to determine the largest value in a range. A formula can’t tell you the answer
without using a func�on. We will use formula that uses the MAX func�on to return the largest value
in the range B3:B8 as =MAX(A1:D100).
Another example of func�ons. Suppose you want to find if the cell of month is greater than 1900
then we can give Bonus to Sales representa�ve. The we can achieve it with wri�ng formula with IF
func�ons as =IF(B9>1900,"Yes","No")

Func�on Arguments

In the above examples, you may have no�ced that all the func�ons used parentheses. The
informa�on inside the parentheses is the list of arguments.

Func�ons vary in how they use arguments. Depending on what it has to do, a func�on may use.

• No arguments − Examples − Now(), Date(), etc.

• One argument − UPPER(), LOWER(), etc.

• A fixed number of arguments − IF(), MAX(), MIN(), AVERGAGE(), etc.

• Infinite number of arguments

• Op�onal arguments
Built-in Functions in Excel 2010

Built In Func�ons

Using Ranges in Excel 2010
Ranges in MS Excel
A cell is a single element in a worksheet that can hold a value, some text, or a formula. A cell is
identified by its address, which consists of its column letter and row number. For example, cell B1 is
the cell in the second column and the first row.
A group of cells is called a range. You designate a range address by specifying its upper-left cell
address and its lower-right cell address, separated by a colon.
Example of Ranges −
C24 − A range that consists of a single cell.
A1:B1 − Two cells that occupy one row and two columns.
A1:A100 − 100 cells in column A.
A1:D4 − 16 cells (four rows by four columns).

Selecting Ranges
You can select a range in several ways −
Press the left mouse button and drag, highlighting the range. Then release the mouse button. If you
drag to the end of the screen, the worksheet will scroll.
Press the Shift key while you use the navigation keys to select a range.
Press F8 and then move the cell pointer with the navigation keys to highlight the range. Press F8 again
to return the navigation keys to normal movement.
Type the cell or range address into the Name box and press Enter. Excel selects the cell or range that
you specified.

Data Validation in Excel 2010

Data Valida�on

MS Excel data valida�on feature allows you to set up certain rules that dictate what can be entered
into a cell. For example, you may want to limit data entry in a par�cular cell to whole numbers
between 0 and 10. If the user makes an invalid entry, you can display a custom message as shown
below.
Valida�on Criteria

To specify the type of data allowable in a cell or range, follow the steps below, which shows all the
three tabs of the Data Valida�on dialog box.

• Select the cell or range.

• Choose Data » Data Tools » Data Valida�on. Excel displays its Data Valida�on dialog box
having 3 tabs se�ngs, Input Message and Error alert.

Se�ngs Tab

Here you can set the type of valida�on you need. Choose an op�on from the Allow drop-down list.
The contents of the Data Valida�on dialog box will change, displaying controls based on your choice.

• Any Value − Selec�ng this op�on removes any exis�ng data valida�on.

• Whole Number − The user must enter a whole number.For example, you can specify that the
entry must be a whole number greater than or equal to 50.

• Decimal − The user must enter a number. For example, you can specify that the entry must
be greater than or equal to 10 and less than or equal to 20.
• List − The user must choose from a list of entries you provide. You will create drop-down list
with this valida�on. You have to give input ranges then those values will appear in the drop-
down.

• Date − The user must enter a date. You specify a valid date range from choices in the Data
drop-down list. For example, you can specify that the entered data must be greater than or
equal to January 1, 2013, and less than or equal to December 31, 2013.

• Time − The user must enter a �me. You specify a valid �me range from choices in the Data
drop-down list. For example, you can specify that the entered data must be later than 12:00
p.m.

• Text Length − The length of the data (number of characters) is limited. You specify a valid
length by using the Data drop-down list. For example, you can specify that the length of the
entered data be 1 (a single alphanumeric character).

• Custom − To use this op�on, you must supply a logical formula that determines the validity
of the user’s entry (a logical formula returns either TRUE or FALSE).

Input Message Tab

You can set the input help message with this tab. Fill the �tle and Input message of the Input
message tab and the input message will appear when the cell is selected.
Using Styles in Excel 2010
Using Styles in MS Excel

With MS Excel 2010 Named styles make it very easy to apply a set of predefined forma�ng op�ons
to a cell or range. It saves �me as well as make sure that look of the cells are consistent.

A Style can consist of se�ngs for up to six different atributes −

• Number format

• Font (type, size, and color)

• Alignment (ver�cal and horizontal)

• Borders

• Patern

• Protec�on (locked and hidden)

Now, let us see how styles are helpful. Suppose that you apply a par�cular style to some twenty cells
scatered throughout your worksheet. Later, you realize that these cells should have a font size of 12
pt. rather than 14 pt. Rather than changing each cell, simply edit the style. All cells with that
par�cular style change automa�cally.

Applying Styles

Choose Home » Styles » Cell Styles. Note that this display is a live preview, that is, as you move your
mouse over the style choices, the selected cell or range temporarily displays the style. When you see
a style you like, click it to apply the style to the selec�on.
Crea�ng Custom Style in MS Excel

We can create new custom style in Excel 2010. To create a new style, follow these steps −

• Select a cell and click on Cell styles from Home Tab.

• Click on New Cell Style and give style name.

• Click on Format to apply forma�ng to the cell.

• A�er applying forma�ng click on OK. This will add new style in the styles. You can view it
on Home »; Styles.
Error Alert Tab

You can specify an error message with this tab. Fill the �tle and error message. Select the style of the
error as stop, warning or Informa�on as per you need.

Cross Referencing in Excel 2010

Graphic Objects in MS Excel

When you have informa�on spread across several different spreadsheets, it can seem a daun�ng task
to bring all these different sets of data together into one meaningful list or table. This is where the
Vlookup func�on comes into its own.

VLOOKUP

VlookUp searches for a value ver�cally down for the lookup table.
VLOOKUP(lookup_value,table_array,col_index_num,range_lookup) has 4 parameters as below.

• lookup_value − It is the user input. This is the value that the func�on uses to search on.

• The table_array − It is the area of cells in which the table is located. This includes not only
the column being searched on, but the data columns for which you are going to get the
values that you need.

• Col_index_num − It is the column of data that contains the answer that you want.
• Range_lookup − It is a TRUE or FALSE value. When set to TRUE, the lookup func�on gives the
closest match to the lookup_value without going over the lookup_value. When set to FALSE,
an exact match must be found to the lookup_value or the func�on will return #N/A. Note,
this requires that the column containing the lookup_value be formated in ascending order.

VLOOKUP Example

Let's look at a very simple example of cross-referencing two spreadsheets. Each spreadsheet contains
informa�on about the same group of people. The first spreadsheet has their dates of birth, and the
second shows their favorite color. How do we build a list showing the person's name, their date of
birth and their favorite color? VLOOOKUP will help in this case. First of all, let us see data in both the
sheets.

This is data in the first sheet

This is data in the second sheet


Now for finding the respec�ve favorite color for that person from another sheet we need to vlookup
the data. First argument to the VLOOKUP is lookup value (In this case it is person name). Second
argument is the table array, which is table in the second sheet from B2 to C11. Third argument to
VLOOKUP is Column index num, which is the answer we are looking for. In this case, it is 2 the color
column number is 2. The fourth argument is True returning par�al match or false returning exact
match. A�er applying VLOOKUP formula it will calculate the color and the results are displayed as
below.
As you can see in the above screen-shot that results of VLOOKUP has searched for color in the
second sheet table. It has returned #N/A in case where match is not found. In this case, Andy's data
is not present in the second sheet so it returned #N/A.

Printing Worksheets in Excel 2010


Quick Print

If you want to print a copy of a worksheet with no layout adjustment, use the Quick Print op�on.
There are two ways in which we can use this op�on.

• Choose File » Print (which displays the Print pane), and then click the Print buton.

Workbook Security in Excel 2010

Workbook Security

We can apply security to the workbook by the concept of protec�on available in the Review Tab of
ribbon. MS Excel's protec�on-related features fall into three categories.

• Worksheet protec�on − Protec�ng a worksheet from being modified, or restric�ng the


modifica�ons to certain users.

• Workbook protec�on − Protec�ng a workbook from having sheets inserted or deleted, and
also requiring the use of password to open the workbook.

Protect Worksheet

You may want to protect a worksheet for a variety of reasons. One reason is to prevent yourself or
others from accidentally dele�ng the formulas or other cri�cal data. A common scenario is to protect
a worksheet, so that the data can be changed, but the formulas can’t be changed.

To protect a worksheet, choose Review » Changes group » Protect Sheet. Excel displays the Protect
Sheet dialog box. Note that providing a password is op�onal. If you enter a password, that password
will be required to unprotect the worksheet. You can select various op�ons in which the sheet should
be protected. Suppose we checked Format Cells op�on then Excel will not allow to format cells.

When somebody tries to format the cells, he or she will get the error as shown in the screenshot
below.
To unprotect a protected sheet, choose Review » Changes group » Unprotect Sheet. If the sheet was
protected with a password, you’re prompted to enter that password.

Protec�ng a Workbook

Excel provides three ways to protect a workbook.

• Requires a password to open the workbook.

• Prevents the users from adding sheets, dele�ng sheets, hiding sheets, and unhiding sheets.

• Prevents users from changing the size or posi�on of windows.

Requiring a Password to Open a Workbook

Excel lets you save a workbook with a password. A�er doing so, whoever tries to open the workbook,
must enter the password. To add a password to a workbook, follow these steps.

• Choose File » Info » Protect Workbook » Encrypt With Password. Excel displays the Encrypt
Document dialog box.

• Type a password and click OK.

• Type the password again and click OK.


• Save the workbook.

To remove a password from a workbook, repeat the same procedure. In Step 2, however, delete the
exis�ng password symbols.

Protec�ng Workbook’s Structure and Windows

To prevent others (or yourself) from performing certain ac�ons in a workbook, you can protect the
workbook’s structure and windows. When a workbook’s structure and windows are protected, the
user may not Add a sheet, Delete a sheet, Hide a sheet, unhide a sheet, etc., and may not be allowed
to change the size or posi�on of a workbook’s windows respec�vely.

To protect a worksheet’s structure and windows, follow the below men�oned steps.

• Choose Review » Changes group » Protect Workbook to display the Protect Workbook
dialog box.

• In the Protect Workbook dialog box, select the Structure check box and Windows check box.

• (Op�onal) Enter a password.

• Click OK.
Data Tables in Excel 2010

Data Tables

In Excel, a Data Table is a way to see different results by altering an input cell in your formula. Data
tables are available in Data Tab » What-If analysis dropdown » Data table in MS Excel.

Data Table with Example

Now, let us see data table concept with an example. Suppose you have the Price and quan�ty of
many values. Also, you have the discount for that as third variable for calcula�ng the Net Price. You
can keep the Net Price value in the organized table format with the help of the data table. Your Price
runs horizontally to the right while quan�ty runs ver�cally down. We are using a formula to calculate
the Net Price as Price mul�plied by Quan�ty minus total discount (Quan�ty * Discount for each
quan�ty).
Now, for crea�on of data table select the range of data table. Choose Data Tab » What-If analysis
dropdown » Data table. It will give you dialogue asking for Input row and Input Column. Give the
Input row as Price cell (In this case cell B3) and Input column as quan�ty cell (In this case cell B4).
Please see the below screen-shot.
Clicking OK will generate data table as shown in the below screen-shot. It will generate the table
formula. You can change the price horizontally or quan�ty ver�cally to see the change in the Net
Price.
Pivot Tables in Excel 2010
Pivot Tables

A pivot table is essen�ally a dynamic summary report generated from a database. The database can
reside in a worksheet (in the form of a table) or in an external data file. A pivot table can help
transform endless rows and columns of numbers into a meaningful presenta�on of the data. Pivot
tables are very powerful tool for summarized analysis of the data.

Pivot tables are available under Insert tab » PivotTable dropdown » PivotTable.

Pivot Table Example

Now, let us see Pivot table with the help of example. Suppose you have huge data of voters and you
want to see the summarized data of voter Informa�on per party, then you can use the Pivot table for
it. Choose Insert tab » Pivot Table to insert pivot table. MS Excel selects the data of the table. You
can select the pivot table loca�on as exis�ng sheet or new sheet.

This will generate the Pivot table pane as shown below. You have various op�ons available in the
Pivot table pane. You can select fields for the generated pivot table.
• Column labels − A field that has a column orienta�on in the pivot table. Each item in the
field occupies a column.

• Report Filter − You can set the filter for the report as year, then data gets filtered as per the
year.

• Row labels − A field that has a row orienta�on in the pivot table. Each item in the field
occupies a row.

• Values area − The cells in a pivot table that contain the summary data. Excel offers several
ways to summarize the data (sum, average, count, and so on).

A�er giving input fields to the pivot table, it generates the pivot table with the data as shown below.
Simple Charts in Excel 2010

Charts

A chart is a visual representa�on of numeric values. Charts (also known as graphs) have been an
integral part of spreadsheets. Charts generated by early spreadsheet products were quite crude, but
thy have improved significantly over the years. Excel provides you with the tools to create a wide
variety of highly customizable charts. Displaying data in a well-conceived chart can make your
numbers more understandable. Because a chart presents a picture, charts are par�cularly useful for
summarizing a series of numbers and their interrela�onships.

Types of Charts

There are various chart types available in MS Excel as shown in the below screen-shot.
• Column − Column chart shows data changes over a period of �me or illustrates comparisons
among items.

• Bar − A bar chart illustrates comparisons among individual items.

• Pie − A pie chart shows the size of items that make up a data series, propor�onal to the sum
of the items. It always shows only one data series and is useful when you want to emphasize
a significant element in the data.

• Line − A line chart shows trends in data at equal intervals.

• Area − An area chart emphasizes the magnitude of change over �me.

• X Y Scater − An xy (scater) chart shows the rela�onships among the numeric values in
several data series, or plots two groups of numbers as one series of xy coordinates.

• Stock − This chart type is most o�en used for stock price data, but can also be used for
scien�fic data (for example, to indicate temperature changes).

• Surface − A surface chart is useful when you want to find the op�mum combina�ons
between two sets of data. As in a topographic map, colors and paterns indicate areas that
are in the same range of values.

• Doughnut − Like a pie chart, a doughnut chart shows the rela�onship of parts to a whole;
however, it can contain more than one data series.

• Bubble − Data that is arranged in columns on a worksheet, so that x values are listed in the
first column and corresponding y values and bubble size values are listed in adjacent
columns, can be ploted in a bubble chart.

• Radar − A radar chart compares the aggregate values of a number of data series.
Crea�ng Chart

To create charts for the data by below men�oned steps.

• Select the data for which you want to create the chart.

• Choose Insert Tab » Select the chart or click on the Chart group to see various chart types.

• Select the chart of your choice and click OK to generate the chart.

Edi�ng Chart

You can edit the chart at any �me a�er you have created it.

• You can select the different data for chart input with Right click on chart » Select data.
Selec�ng new data will generate the chart as per the new data, as shown in the below
screen-shot.
• You can change the X axis of the chart by giving different inputs to X-axis of chart.

• You can change the Y axis of chart by giving different inputs to Y-axis of chart.

Pivot Charts Excel 2010

Pivot Charts

A pivot chart is a graphical representa�on of a data summary, displayed in a pivot table. A pivot chart
is always based on a pivot table. Although Excel lets you create a pivot table and a pivot chart at the
same �me, you can’t create a pivot chart without a pivot table. All Excel char�ng features are
available in a pivot chart.

Pivot charts are available under Insert tab » PivotTable dropdown » PivotChart.

Pivot Chart Example

Now, let us see Pivot table with the help of an example. Suppose you have huge data of voters and
you want to see the summarized view of the data of voter Informa�on per party in the form of
charts, then you can use the Pivot chart for it. Choose Insert tab » Pivot Chart to insert the pivot
table.
MS Excel selects the data of the table. You can select the pivot chart loca�on as an exis�ng sheet or a
new sheet. Pivot chart depends on automa�cally created pivot table by the MS Excel. You can
generate the pivot chart in the below screen-shot.
