Spreadsheet Basics

Microsoft Excel is a spreadsheet program that you can use to organize, analyze and
attractively present data such as a budget or sales report. Each Excel file is a workbook
that can hold many worksheets. The worksheet is a grid of columns, designated by
letters, and rows, designated by numbers. The letters and numbers of the columns and
row called labels are displayed in gray buttons across the top and left side of the
worksheet. The intersection of a column and a row is called a cell. Each cell on the
spreadsheet has a cell address that is the column letter and the row number. Cells can
contain text, numbers, or mathematical formulas.
