RE: V look up

Hi Matthew

Thank you for your question, and apologies for the delay in reply.

You can assign names to cell ranges by doing the following:

1. Select the cell range you wish to name
2. Click in the Name box (near the top of your screen, under the box where you choose the font type).
3. Enter a name for the range, without using spaces as part of the range name
4. Press Enter to assign the name to the cell range.

To edit the cell range that the name refers to:
1. Go to Insert/Name/Define
2. Select the name of the range from the large box.
3. Use the Refers to: box at the bottom of the dialogue box to reselect the cell range.
4. Click OK.

You can also add and delete named ranges from within the same dialogue box.

I hope this helps.
Amanda

 

Excel tip:

Generate randon numbers

Some types of analysis require you to use randomly generated numbers. You can also use randomly generated numbers to quickly populate an Excel spreadsheet. There's an easy function you can use to do this automatically. Here are a few of the ways you can use it:

Type =RAND() in a cell to generate a number between 0 and 1.
Type =RAND()*100 to generate a number between 1 and 100.
