12 Week 5 Overview

This is the last week of instruction. Three different topics are introduced, with only two assignments due.

The first two topics are required for the exercised called Student Gradebook Assignment. They are 3-D referencing and VLOOKUP. The 3D referencing allows you to add up figures in multiple sheets and place the results on a Summary Sheet. The VLOOKUP allows you to locate specific values in a table. The computer will read across the row and finds the value in a column you specify. Be sure to do the practice parts before completing the assignment. There are new formulas for both topics.

The last topic is creating a Subtotal Sheet. Steps are outlined for creating Sheet Names, changing a spreadsheet into a table and then into a range as well as using a dialog box to create Subtotals and Grand Totals automatically.
