For more course tutorials visit www.uoptutorial.com CheckPoint: Formatting Excel Spreadsheets • Resource: Ch. 8 (pp. 308-311) in Computing Fundamentals, the Computer Applications Tutorial and Appendix D • Due Date: Day 4 [Individual forum] • Refer to Ch. 8 (pp. 308-311) in Computing Fundamentals. • Review the Excel portion of the Computer Applications Tutorial at http://corptrain.phoenix.edu/office_tools/index.htm and explore the spreadsheet program on your computer. • Use the information available in Appendix D to format a Microsoft® Excel data set. The scenario for this data set is as follows: You just had a birthday a couple of weeks ago and you were somewhat surprised by some of the presents you received, pleasantly in several cases and unpleasantly in others. On a whim, you lightheartedly decide to find out who loves you the most based upon the gifts you were given. You use a spreadsheet to analyze the information. For this CheckPoint, you refine the spreadsheet, manipulating the document in the following ways: o Use at least two different font sizes. o Change the font. o Use at least one font style such as bold, italics, and underline. o Apply color to at least one set of text. o Apply a fill color to at least one set of cells. o Apply a border to at least one group of cells. o Format all cells with dollar amounts as currency. o Use the fill handle to fill in the remaining cells in the Birthday column. Note: The fill sequences the dates, so you need to choose the option to copy cells. o Format all of the cells with dates as xx/xx/xxxx. • Submit the spreadsheet as an attachment with the answers to the following questions as a post of 50 to 100 words: o What did you like about Excel? o What seemed frustrating? o What did you not understand?
