Understanding spreadsheet rows, columns, cells, workbooks, and sheets

Описание: http://courses.robobunnyattack.com/co...

Meet your spreadsheet! Start up a new spreadsheet, and let's have look around.

There are some important terms you need to know before we move forward:

See the grid on your spreadsheet? You probably noticed the letters along the top, and the number along the side. Those letters identify our vertical columns, and the number identify the horizontal rows. I'll be talking about columns and rows a lot in this course, so make sure you know which is which.

Those individual boxes in the grid are called cells. Each cell is identified by the name of the column and the name of the row. So a cell in column E and on row 5 is called "E5".

Pretty easy, right? In fact, it's just like playing BATTLESHIP!    • Видео  

One more detail...

Each spreadsheet workbook can actually contain more than one sheet. Typically, you can switch between sheets using tabs along the bottom left hand side. You can also use these tabs to add new sheets to your workbook.
