Excel Review

1. The simplest way to enter data in a worksheet is to click the cell in which you want to enter data and type.

3. When using AutoFill, there are four options that appear:
a. Copy Cells

d. Fill Without Formatting

4. The Pick from Drop-down List action can be used for more options than what is initially shown on the icon.
