as above.
There is a column 'Amount' for which we will total in cell C17. Place it-
you on this cell and click on the "AutoSum (Sigma sign) tool )». The formula becomes
=SUM(C4:C16). The colon means 'from to'.

Change one or two values in the column and observe the immediate result.

Exercise 3 sheet 'Balance'

We will calculate the balance on each line. How to calculate the balance (Previous balance +
entries - exits). In cell F4 enter the following formula: =F3+D4-E4. There are 2 ways to
to do
a) While in cell C4, type the sign = then click on cell F3, type the sign +
Click on cell D4, type the minus sign – then click on cell E4. Then confirm by the
green car of the formula bar.
b) You can directly type the formula after selecting cell F3, but it is
less fast and less accurate (possible error in the cell addresses)

The balance of line 4 is displayed. It remains to copy it or drag it from F4 to F19 using the
handle symbolized by the small black cross.
Now we will sum the 'entries' column by placing ourselves in cell E20. Then in
clicking on the "AutoSum" tool, look at the blue box surrounding the 3 cells D17 D18
D19.

The accumulation would only occur on these three lines. By clicking on the top corner (right or left), we

"Hold to view" then on "finish". You can then modify the
parameters of this graph.

You can move the graph by holding down the left click and moving the mouse.
Exercice 4 feuille « Listes auto »
In this sheet, we will look at the facilities offered by the automation of lists. Click
on cell A3. Drag the handle down about ten lines. You will see the months go by and you will
stop when you have the desired list.

Similarly from cell B3, then from C3.


Pour les heures, il faut deux valeurs pour que Excel détermine l’écart de 30 minutes (ou de 10).

"Tools" "Options" tab "Custom Lists" by entering the values one by one or by taking a list
existing with the "import" tool by then selecting the cells to keep.

Exercise 5 sheet 'Absolute Relative'


We have seen that when we pull the handle of a cell, the addresses of the cells evolve.
automatically. We will calculate the net amount in cell D5 by entering the following formula
=B5*C5. Then we drag the handle of cell D5 down to D18.

In this sheet, we also want to calculate the amount of VAT and the total including tax on each line.
If we want to continue with the same method, we would need a 'VAT' column to find the rate.
on each line. We have placed this VAT rate in cell B2. But it is necessary to indicate on each
line that we want to use this cell. In cell E5 we enter the formula "=D5*B2/100".
Then, to see our mistake, we pull down the handle of E5. There are inconsistent values because the
cell B2 is not fixed.

FALSE
To make it fixed, you need to modify cell E5 by putting a $ sign in front of B and a $ in front of.
Then pull the handle of E5 and the VAT is correctly calculated for each line.

Now calculate the total including tax in cell F5 with the formula "=D5+E5" and drag down.
