Excel - all versions

Excel - all versions

When working with a spreadhseet, I like to expand the columns so that the full wording of the headings and cell content below can be viewed.

I currently click on the right-hand side of each heading cell in turn but believe there is a way to make all columns are expanded simultaneously. Please explain how I can do this.

Thank you,

Debbie

RE: Excel - all versions

hi Debbie

Thanks for your question

To auto size all columns you must first select the entire sheet. To do this click the click the "button" that lies at the extreme top left of the worksheet; immediately to the left of column label A and above row number 1.

You can then auto size the whole sheet by auto sizing any of the individual columns

Hope this helps

Regards

Stephen

Excel tip:

Quickly insert a function

In Excel 97 and 2000 it was known as the Paste Function dialog box, these days it's known as the Insert Function dialog box. Regardless, one has to choose Insert|Function. or the fx button to open it up. There is, however, a non-mousey way to get hold of the Insert Function dialog box: press Shift+F3 in a blank cell to open the Insert Function dialog.

Press Shift+F3 after a function name and open bracket to open the Function Arguments dialog. For example, type =VLOOKUP( into a cell and press Shift+F3 to obtain a detailed description of VLOOKUP's arguments.
