Tutorial on Microsoft Excel 2003
1. Click 'Start,' 'All Programs,' 'Microsoft Office,' and then Microsoft Office Excel 2003. Excel 2003 will launch.
2. Click on any cell in the worksheet to select it.
3. Type numerical data or text in a selected cell and then press 'Enter' to enter information into the cell.
4. Click on the 'Sheet' tabs at the bottom of the window to work in different worksheets. Each sheet acts as its own separate workspace within the same Excel workbook.
5. Click on a cell, hold down the mouse button and then drag the mouse across the spreadsheet to select a block or range of cells. Selecting ranges of cells allows you to perform actions on all the cells at once. For instance, you can select a group of cells and then press 'Delete' to delete the data they contain.
