Excel, Array formulae

When is it useful to use array formulae?

RE: Excel, Array formulae

Hi Shanika. Basically, you use an array formula whenever you want to perform a calculation based on a range of cells. The simplest array formula is, for example "=SUM(A1:A10)" in which those cell values are loaded into memory, added, and the result outputted into the formula cell. Arrays become even more important when programming, to perform functions on a (sometimes incredibly long) series of variables held in memory.

Hope this helps,

Anthony

Excel tip:

How to apply the same formatting and data to multiple sheets at the same time in Excel 2010

When you want to format more than one sheet in a worksheet exactly the same way, Ctrl-click the tabs of the sheets you want to group together and they will all turn white. While they are grouped, anything you enter in one sheet gets entered into the others.

After you have done this, remember to click on the tabs to take them out of the group so that you do not accidentally insert data in multiple sheets when you just want to insert data in one.
