4 The Office 2007 Interface There are a number of prominent changes to the look and functionality of the Microsoft Office 2007 interface. The Office Button The Office Button, located in the top left corner of the window, replaces the File Menu from previous versions of Office, and contains items that are common to all Office applications, such as Open, Save and Print. Hovering your mouse over an Office Button item with an arrow displays a list of sub-items. The Ribbon The Menu Bar and Toolbars have been replaced by the Ribbon, a panel that contains functional groupings of buttons and drop-down lists organized by tabs. Each application in the Office Suite has a different set of tabs (with some tabs in common) that pertain to the functionality of that particular application. Each tab is further divided into groups (of buttons), such as the Font and Paragraph groups shown above. 4

5 At the bottom right-hand corner of some groups, there is a diagonal arrow called a Dialog Box Launcher. Clicking this button opens a dialog box for that group containing further option selections for the group. There are also contextual tabs that appear, depending on what you re working on. For example, if you ve inserted pictures, the Picture Tools tab appears whenever a picture is selected. The Quick Access Toolbar The Quick Access Toolbar is a small toolbar at the top left of the window that you can customize to contain the buttons for the functions that you use most often. In essence, it is the same as the toolbars from previous versions of Office with only the buttons you want to see on it. To customize the Quick Access Toolbar, click on the drop-down arrow on the far right. You can add or remove items from the Toolbar, as well as show the Toolbar below the Ribbon, rather than above, and minimize the Ribbon. 5

14 Introduction to Functions and Formulas A function always begins with an equal sign (=). The data Excel will use to calculate a function is enclosed in parentheses (). Specify Individual Cells When there is a comma (,) between cell references in a function, Excel uses each cell to perform the calculation. For example, the function =SUM (A1, A2, A3) is the same as the formula =A1+A2+A3. Specify Group of Cells When there is a colon (:) between cell references in a function, Excel uses the specified cells and all cells between them to perform the calculation. For example, the function =SUM (A1:A3) is the same as the formula =A1+A2+A3. Common Functions Average Calculates the average value of a list or numbers. Max Finds the largest value in a list of numbers. Sum Adds a list of numbers. Count Calculates the number of values in a list. Min Finds the value in a list of numbers. Round Rounds a value to a specific number of digits. 14

Then type the formula and press Enter on your keyboard. 4. The results of the calculation should appear in the selected cell. To view the formula you entered, click the cell containing the formula and it appears in the formula bar. 15

16 Edit a Formula 1. Click on the cell containing the formula you would like to edit and the formula will be shown inside the formula (fx) bar at the top. 2. Click inside the formula bar and make the necessary changes. 3. After making the necessary changes, press Enter and the answer appears in the cell selected for the formula. 16

17 Basic Formulas Sum Adds a list of numbers. SUM This cell contains the function: =SUM(B3:B7) =B3+B4+B5+B6+B7 = =441.6 AVERAGE Average Calculates the average value of a list of numbers. This cell contains the function: = AVERAGE(B3:B7) = (B3+B4+B5+B6+B7)/5 = ( )/5 =

18 MAX Max Finds the largest value in a list of numbers. This cell contains the function: = MAX(B3:B7) = 100 MIN Min Finds the smallest value in a list of numbers. This cell contains the function: =MIN(B3:B7) =

19 COUNT Count Calculates the number of values in a list. This cell contains the function: =COUNT(B3:B7) =5 ROUND Round Rounds a value to a specific number of digits. This cell contains the function: =ROUND(B15,2) =3.4 19

20 ENTER A FUNCTION Excel helps you enter functions in your worksheet. This lets you perform calculations without typing long, complex formulas. 1. Click the cell where you want to enter the function on the worksheet. 2. Click the Paste Function button on the Formula Bar. 3. The Paste Function dialog box appears. 4.
