Beginners Excel

Hi Patrick how are you

the usage of the function keys is a good question and your answer is as follows

F1 = help, F2 = edit cell or formula
F4 = to insert dolloar signs (absolute ref)
F5 = go to window for navigation
F7 = will start a spell check
F9 = update field or cell data
F11 = Insert chart from selected cells
F12 = will open up the save as window

hope this helps you Patrick
