RE: 3d Formula

Dear Jourdan

Thank you for attending Excel 2007 Intermediate course. I hope you enjoyed the course and are finding the topics covered during the training useful.

The short and sweet answer to your question is that it is possible to use different data in the different columns which are located in different worksheets.

But in some cases when you have data for different Qtrs, Months, Years, Regions, etc.. in different worksheets then 3 D formula is most efficient. Please note that the alternative to 3 D formula is Consolidate feature. It is most efficient in situations when the row and column headings are similar across the worksheets. However, you can still apply this feature if the data you want to calculate is not the similar in all the worksheets.

I hope this answers your question.

If this has answered your questions may I request you to mark this post as resolved!!

Many thanks

Kindest Regards

Excel tip:

Generating Random Numbers

To generate a random number in Excel use the = RAND() function.

The value returned will always be between 0 and 1. To convert this to some other random value, you will need to multiply the result by the highest number you want to consider. For example, if you wanted a random number between 1 and 25, you could use the following code line:
= INT(25 * RAND()+ 1)

Since RAND() will always returns a value between 0 and 1 (but never 1 itself), multiplying what it returns by 25 and then using the Integer function INT on that result will return a whole number between 0 and 24.

Finally, 1 is added to this result, so that x will be equal to a number between 1 and 25, inclusive
