Budget spreadsheets and formulas

What should I do if text or numbers appear in red on a budget spreadsheet indicating an error?

RE: Budget spreadsheets and formulas

The spreadsheet you are working with must have VBA coding or conditional formatting. I would check in with who created it. Alternatively you can change the conditional format by clicking in the cell that went red and clicking format/conditional format/Delete

Shortcuts for working with named ranges in Excel

If you are working with or creating named ranges in your spreadsheets, then you may find the following shortcut keys useful.

- Bring up the Define Names dialogue box on screen by using Ctrl + F3 (instead of going to Insert - Names).

- Create Names from labels you have entered into the spreadsheet by highlighting the labels and related figures, then hold down Shift + Ctrl + F3. You can then choose to create names from the top or bottom rows, or left or right columns.

- Go directly to a named range by hitting the F5 key. The Go To dialogue box will open and display any named ranges in the spreadsheet. Simply select the named range to navigate to it in the spreadsheet.
