Learning Objective

  • To state which Go To Special option allows you to select all form controls on a worksheet at once.
  • To recall what the linked cell for a checkbox displays when a user clicks the checkbox on.
  • To identify the feature that offers the most efficient means of storing a paragraph or more of text in a worksheet.

Course Overview

Learn from Excel expert David Ringstrom, CPA, how to implement multiple techniques to create spreadsheets that are interactive, accurate, and user-friendly in this on-demand webcast. He explains how to use a variety of Excel’s form controls and features to control the data input of other users, simplify data entry, preserve key formulas, minimize spreadsheet maintenance, and more.

David demonstrates every technique at least twice: first, on a PowerPoint slide with numbered steps, and second, in the subscription-based Office 365 version of Excel. David draws your attention to any differences in the older versions of Excel (2019, 2016, 2013, and earlier) during the presentation as well as in his detailed handouts. David also provides an Excel workbook that includes most of the examples he uses during the webcast.

Office 365 is a subscription-based product that provides new feature updates as often as monthly. Conversely, the perpetual licensed versions of Excel have feature sets that don’t change. Perpetual licensed versions have year numbers, such as Excel 2019, Excel 2016, and so on.

Who Would Be Interest in This Course:

Practitioners who want to learn how to create user-friendly, interactive spreadsheets. 

Topics Covered:

  • Creating an in-cell list by way of Excel’s Data Validation feature.
  • Unlocking all data validation cells at once within a worksheet as opposed to tracking cells individually.
  • Using the ComboBox form control to create a searchable drop-down list.
  • Creating an in-cell list by way of Excel’s Data Validation feature.
  • Tweaking the Data Validation settings for a given range of cells.
  • Learning how the Table feature empowers you to improve the integrity of Excel spreadsheets.
