Excel 2003 cell naming

I am having difficulty getting my head around naming a cell and how that is used later. Do I name the cell in the top bar at the left hand side?

RE: Excel 2003 cell naming

Hi Dee

Yes. In the Excel Formula bar there is a Name Box on the left side.

The quickest way of naming a Cell or a Range of Cells is to highlight the relevant cell(s) and then to click in the Name Box and enter the name (eg Name a cell holding the vat value as VAT).

Then when creating a formula that involves vat you could write

= C8 * VAT

Hope this helps

Carlos

Excel tip:

Enter formulae into multiple cells

If a formula is to be used in a series of cells, select the cells first. Now type in your formula and hold the Ctrl key while you press Enter. This enters the formula in each selected cell.

Just be careful with your absolute and relative cell references.
