COMPUTING SKILL

S011
  • Freeze Pane keeps the heading visible while you scrolling through the worksheet.
  • The conditional formatting  feature enables you to format a range of values so that the values outsides certain limits are automatically formatted.
  • Formaulas use a variety of operators and worksheet functions to work with values and text.
RELATIVE CELL REFERENCE:
  • All cell references are relative references
  • When copied across multiple cells, they change based on the relative position of rows and columns. 
  • For example, if you copy the formula =A1+B1 from row 1 to row 2, the formula will become =A2+B2. 
  • Relative references are especially convenient whenever you need to repeat the same calculation across multiple rows or columns.

Absolute references

  • There may be times when you do not want a cell reference to change when filling cells. 
  • Absolute references do not change when copied or filled. 
  • You can use an absolute reference to keep a row and/or column constant.
  • An absolute reference is designated in a formula by the addition of a dollar sign ($) before the column and row. 
  • If it precedes the column or row (but not both), it's known as a mixed reference.
Mixed cell references:

  • both the row or column reference is relative
  • the other is absolute.
  • only one of the address parts are abosolute
