Introduction to Basic Functions in Spreadsheet
Using Microsoft Excel 5.0 for Windows
Below is a list of some of the basic functions for Microsoft
Excel. All instructions are based on Excel version 5.0 for Windows
format. Many of the functions, however, remain the same
when using the Macintosh or version. It will be helpful for
you to follow along with Excel as the functions are
explained (many items are made clear by actually seeing what
occurs on the screen). You will be required to print a hard
copy of some information by the end of the hour. Good Luck!
