3 Hour Excel Automation Boot Camp: Sort and Filter Tools, Conditional Formatting, Data Validation and Visualization with SmartArt and Charts
OVERVIEW
Excel is a powerful
program for managing and analyzing lengthy lists of data.
What tips, tricks, and
techniques do you need to know to quickly and easily sort and filter a range or
table of data?
Join this advanced Excel
training course to explore the shortcuts and solutions for effectively working
with large worksheets of data.With Conditional Formatting, Excel, we’ll show
you how massive amounts of data can be analyzed to visually emphasize
relationships, find exceptions, and spot trends.
By knowing how to use
Conditional Formatting in Excel you can change the format of cells based on
their values in multiple ways including font style, underline style, font
color, fill color and more.
Adding your own formula
to a conditional formatting rule gives it a power boost to help you do things
the built-in rules can’t do.
Data bars can be used to show the value of a cell relative to other cells. Data
bars can be modified multiple ways.
Color scales shows data
distribution and variation. Shades of color represent high, middle and low
values. A variety of color combinations are available.
Icon sets allow annotation
and classification of data into three to five categories using icons. It is
possible to customize icon sets.
They say that ‘a picture
is worth a thousand words.’ Using data visualization tools, Excel, like
SmartArt and Charts to visually display complex Excel data communicates the
data’s message much more effectively to your target audience.
SmartArt graphics and Charts can be created not just in Excel, but also in
PowerPoint, Word and Outlook. This makes learning these tools extremely useful.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES
This Microsoft Excel
training session covers THREE intermediate features of Excel that provide
automation within the application.
Learning how to
efficiently use Excel is so critical in many of today’s office jobs. Many
people know the basics of Excel. This webinar will show you how to use the sort
and filter tools in Excel and also subtotals to get
the most out of your data, be more efficient, and find the information that you
are looking for.
Thanks to Conditional
Formatting, you can highlight all information that is important to you (the
highest or lowest values, duplicate values, values that are larger or smaller
than a certain value). This will provide you with the necessary information to
make important business decisions. To be sure that the data is entered
accurately, use Data Validation to restrict the input type of
a value based on a specific set of criteria. Trying to enter data that does not
meet the criteria will generate an error message. Create a drop-down list of
items in a cell with data validation. This will make data entry easier and
reduce input errors and typing mistakes.
A SmartArt graphic
is a visual representation of information and ideas, and a Chart is
a visual illustration of numeric values or data.
Basically, SmartArt graphics are designed for text and charts
are designed for numbers.
