Data Validation - Basics

To prevent incorrect data posting in specific cells we use Data Validation. 
if you created a worksheet that will be used by others, you need to ensure that only correct data that matches with requirements is entered. 

For example: between (10 and 20), or only specific text (Mr., Mrs, or Miss), etc.

Cell Styles

A smart way to quickly format a cell or range of cells is Cell Style. A cell style is a defined set of misc. formatting, such as fonts, font sizes, font Colors, number formats, cell borders, cell shading, etc.

Microsoft Office Excel has many predefined cell styles that you can apply. You can modify or duplicate a cell style to create your own, custom cell style as per your requirement or taste.

BENEFITS OF USING CELL STYLES:
* Apply Several formats in one step
* Ensure consistent formatting
* Saves time by just selecting a defined style.

Important: Cell styles are based on the document theme that is applied to the whole workbook. When you switch to another document theme, the cell styles are updated to match the new document theme.

1. Select a cell or range of cells
2. Click on "Cell Styles" button at Home tab
3. click on a pre-defined cell style




CREATE NEW OWN STYLE
1. Goto Home tab > Styles group > Cell Styles
2. Click "New Cell Styles"
3. Type an appropriate name for the new cell style in Style name box.
4. Click on Format button
5. Format Cells dialogue box appears with many tabs, where from you can select different formats
6. After selection of format(s) click on OK button.
Now u can use/apply this new style.

MODIFY A STYLE
* To modify an existing cell style, right-click that cell style, and then click Modify.
* Cell Style Dialogue Box will appear
* Click on format button and change formatting as required




STYLE DERIVED FROM AN OLD STYLE (DUPLICATE)
* To create a style derived form an existing cell style, right-click that cell style, and then click Duplicate.
* Cell Style Dialogue Box will appear
* Change the style name
* Click on format button and change formatting as required

Note: A duplicate cell style and a renamed cell style are added to the list of custom cell styles. If you do not rename a built-in cell style, the built-in cell style will be updated with any changes that you make.

PIVOT TABLES
 
Being able to quickly analyze data can help you make better business decisions.

When you have data especially large data, PivotTables are a great way to summarize, analyze, explore, and present it. PivotTables are highly flexible and can be quickly adjusted depending on how you need to display your results. You can also create PivotCharts based on PivotTables that will automatically update when your PivotTables do.

You can create PivotTable with just a few clicks, but before you get started be careful for …
* Data should be in tabular format
* All columns should have proper header at first row
* Not have any blank row or column
* Data types within a column should be same
* Excel tables are a great PivotTable data source, because rows or columns added to a table are automatically included in the PivotTable when you refresh the data. Otherwise, you need to manually update the data source range.
* PivotTables work on a snapshot of your data, called the cache, so your actual data doesn't get altered in any way.

1. click anywhere in your source data
 

2. from Insert tab click at PivotTable button
