Excel 2016
Basic Math in Excel
Using basic math functions to manipulate your data is one of the features that makes Excel so powerful.
Collaborating with Others in Excel
Working with others on a workbook can become unmanageable, resulting in multiple files and recommended changes manually entered. Learn to track editions by person, merge them into one workbook, then accept or reject changes. Send worksheet data to others in the body of an e-mail message, and password-protect your workbook for added security.
Conditional Formatting
Conditional formatting helps users to quickly focus on important aspects of a spreadsheet or to highlight errors and to identify important patterns in data.
Create a Macro in Excel
Instead of repeatedly performing routine and/or complex tasks, let Excel remember them for you so they can be carried out with a click or a keystroke - then store them on your Quick Access toolbar for easy access.
Create Lookup Formulas In Excel
When you want to pull information from a table, the Excel VLOOKUP function is a typical solution. Its ability to dynamically lookup and retrieve information from a table is a game-changer for many users, so you'll find it everywhere.
Creating Logical Formulas in Excel
A formula is statement written by the user to be calculated. Formulas can be simple or complex. A formula can contain values, references to cells, defined names, and functions. Excel is very flexible in the way that these logical operators can be used. For example, you can use them to compare two cells, or compare the results of one or more formulas.
Customizing the Excel Environment
Customize the settings in Excel to create a personalized environment with interface options that you need to easily access.
Datasets in a Table in Excel
Learn to sort data to quickly organize your data and to find the data that you want. Learn to filter data to display only the rows that meet criteria that you specify and hide rows that you do not want displayed, for one or more columns of data.
Edit a Macro
Taking a look at the programming code used in a macro (either ones you have recorded or macros created by others) is a great way to help you understand how the macro is put together and how it works. You can do this examination, and make changes to your macros, by editing them.
Excel Power Pivot Demo
Pivot tables are one of Excel's most powerful features. Use Pivot Tables to summarize large amounts of data. This is a good way to quickly see all the values that appear in a field and also find typos, and other inconsistencies.
Excel VBA Creating a Code from Scratch
Practice creating procedures from scratch in the visual basic editor. We will walk through creating a procedure in Word, Excel, and PowerPoint.
Excel VBA Making Decisions in Your Code
Computers behave intelligently in large part because programming languages include commands that test conditions, then brank to appropriate code based on the results of that test.
Exporting and importing Data in Excel
Export and import data from other sources in to Excel to share your information with other people and include data from other sources.
Filtering Data in Excel
Filtering data in Excel lets you take large sets of data and filter down to just the individual records you need. It saves time, and allows you to gather very specific data from large data sets.
Formatting in Excel
Most Excel users know how to apply basic numeric and text formats. But users who push beyond the basics will create more readable and effective sheets. In addition, knowing how to apply just the right formatting to specific cells quickly and easily helps users work more efficiently.
Formulas in Excel
When you enter a formula in a table column, Excel creates a calculated column. This column uses a single formula that's automatically extended to additional rows in the column and adjusted for each row. You just enter a formula once, and Excel immediately fills it down to create the calculated column - there's no need to use the Fill or Copy command.
Importing Data and Data Validation in Excel
Create a form in Excel that pulls data from a database.
Mixed Chart Types in Excel
Mixed type or combo (combination) charts combine two styles of charts, such as Excel's column chart and line chart. This format can be helpful for displaying two different types of information or a range of values that varies greatly.
Organizing and Analyzing Data in a Table in Excel
Sort criteria for an Excel table are saved with the workbook so that you can reapply the sort to that table each time that you open the workbook.
Organizing Datasets in Excel
Learn to sort data to quickly organize your data and to find the data that you want. Learn to filter data to display only the rows that meet criteria that you specify and hide rows that you do not want displayed, for one or more columns of data.
Pivot Tables in Excel
Learn how PivotTables allow you to quickly summarize all your data in just a few clicks.
Sorting and Filtering in Excel

Working with Charts
Discover how to work with charts and graphs in Excel, and visualize your data in a new way.
Working with Macros in Excel
Macros allow you to replay a series of events, such as keystrokes or mouse clicks to save time in Excel.
Working with Tables in Excel
To make managing and analyzing a group of related data easier, you can turn a range of cells into a Microsoft Office Excel table. A table typically contains related data in a series of worksheet rows and columns that have been formatted as a table. By using the table features, you can then manage the data in the table rows and columns independently from the data in other rows and columns on the worksheet.

Enhance the appeal and impact of your worksheet by including visual objects that supplement your data, then format and arrange them for maximum effect.
