In this video tutorial, we will take a look at the intermediate skills
tips and tricks that you need to know in order to use Excel
properly and efficiently. If you have not already watched my
other Excel video, which is called the beginner's guide to Excel, I
highly recommend that you start with that video first. The last
thing that I showed in that video was how to do some formatting,
such as changing the column widths. The way this works is you
select a column or a row, and I just click on it. I then go up here
to conditional formatting and click. It gives me some options,
including mentioning rules several times. The easiest example I
can think of is color scales, so let's just look at that. If I go up
here, I can change that from general to any one of these other

on the dollar sign now, and they all show up as accounting
currency. If you do not need it or want it to be accounting, you
can just go down and do regular currency.

show you an alternate way to do it. The formula bar is what we
have here, and it's an alternative to typing your formula right
here in the cell you can just go up to the formula bar and start
typing, and notice as you type you get some suggestions. There
are many many more functions that you can use if you want to
see pretty much an exhaustive list of all the functions that you
can use just type in equals. The autofill handle is where you'll find
it when you click on a cell, look in the lower right corner there's a
green square, and if you put your mouse on that square it will
become a plus sign. You can click and drag to copy what you
want to copy. If you need to use the insert function button, just
go here to insert function.
The autofill handle is especially good for anything related to time,
so for example, dates. With dates and times, you don't even have
