Using References in Formulas [1] Relative: 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. Absolute: The row and column references do not change when you copy the formula because the reference is to an actual cell address. Mixed: Ether the row or column reference is relative or absolute There are 3 types of references you can use:

Using References in Formulas [2] Example Relative Reference: =(A17+A18)/A19 Absolute Reference: =($A$17+$A$18)/A19 Mixed Reference: =(A$17+$A18)/A19 $ ARE IMPORTANT

Referencing cells outside the worksheets [1] To use a reference to a cell in another worksheet in the same workbook, use this format: SheetName!CellAddress Example: =A1 * Sheet2!A1 To use a reference to a cell in a worksheet in a different workbook, simply insert its file name: [WorkbookName]SheetName!CellAddress Example: =[Budget.xls]Sheet1!A1

Referencing cells outside the worksheets [2] If the workbook name in the reference includes one or more spaces, you must enclose it (and the sheet name) in single quotation marks. = A1 * ‘[Budget For 2003]Sheet1’!A1 Here is a formula that refers to a cell on Sheet1 in a workbook name Budget for 2003

Making Charts [1] In order to insert a chart, simply click on Insert, and then choose which chart to be utilized. Depending on how the graph should look like, different graph icons can be used. 1.Column Graph 2.Line Graph 3. Pie Graph 4.Bar Graph 5.Area Graph 6.Scatter Graph 7.Other Graphs

Making Charts [2] In the second step, the data that is to be used has to be specified. In order to do that, click on Design after inserting the chart, and then on the Select data icon.

Making Charts [2 cont’] Once the below window opens up, a.New series can be added. b.Existing series can be deleted or edited. c.Graphs can be switched from Rows to Columns. Adds New Series to the Graph Switches between Rows and Columns Edits existing Series Removes Series

Making Charts [3] The last step of creating a chart is filling the graph with labels such as Chart title, Axes titles, Legend, Data labels etc. To do that, click on Layout under Chart Tools. From there, each icon represents a different title or label. To Insert a Chart Title To Insert Axes Title To Modify Location of Legend To Create Data Labels To Show or Hide Data Table

Making Charts [4] It can be specified where to place the New Created Chart, by clicking on Design under Chart Tools, and then by clicking on Move Chart Location. The Chart can be either saved Onto a New sheet OR Onto an existing Sheet
