Rachel has attended:
Excel Introduction course

Sum

What is the difference between entering a formula i.e =(b5+c5+d5) and using sum in a formula?

RE: Sum

sum is just easier.

if you have loads of cells that you want to add up next to each other, you don't want to type =B5+C5+D5 etc, you just type =sum(B5:D5) this will add up all the cells between and including B5 & D5

 

Excel tip:

Showing all menu items

If you go into a pull down menu you usally find that you get a selection of items(this is the default) or sometimes everything. If you only get a selectiopn you have to go to the double arrows at the bottom of the menu and click it to get all of the hidden items.
To turn this off so that you always get everything, go to Tools / Customize / Options Tab / "Always show full menus". Make sure there is a tick in the box and you will always have every item.
