Lesson 3 - Spreadsheet Formatting

In Lesson 3 we look at formatting in the Personal Budget Spreadsheet example file, and cover the following:

  • Whitespace around content
  • Color choice
  • Font choice
  • Cell borders for grouping
  • Consistency in formatting
  • Cell alignment (convention = left align text, right align numbers, center headings)
  • Chart alignment (quick tip = hold down "ALT" while moving a chart to snap to cells)

If at any time you need to ask me a question, please email me at [email protected] with the subject "Launch Excel Boot Camp" and describe your problem or question. There is also a comments section at the end of this module to post feedback that other enrolled students will see.
