The PROBLEMS with using the CTRL key to select cells around a merged cell: 1. You often don't realise/remember there's a merged cell nestled in the data you're selecting until it's too late. By then you've already tried to select the cells and then the merged cell gets in the way. A waste of time that could be avoided if the cells were formatted with 'center across selection'. 2. You can't use the keyboard to select cells either side of the merged cells, so it's no good for all those keyboard shortcut users. 3. Having to hold down the CTRL key to select non-contiguous cells is more time consuming than just applying the 'center across selection' format in the first place.

Been years working with excel, but just found out "center across selection". Thank you

Same here. My jaw dropped.

I was in a job I couldn't stand and asked to do a rotation in another department. Fell in love with the job during my rotation but the one skill was lacking was using excel. Ran across your videos and I love the way you break every skill down and explain the steps. My rotation was a three month only rotation but I noticed many people lacked proficient excel skill so I decided to teach myself. But thanks to the skills I was gaining my three month rotation turned into a year and at the end of the year I was offered a job because of what I was able to do. One week ago I was promoted into a job that requires a minimum of five years of experience to qualify for. It took me half that time and I have never loved a job the way I love this one. Thank you for taking the time to make these videos and doing them in a way that's easy to follow.

If you write or use any VBA in your workbooks, merged cells mess with the code there as well. Where I work, we had to ensure that everyone on our small team that modified any of our many workbooks (over 200) did so using Center Across Selection. When someone forgot, the reports for that day came to a grinding halt!

This is one of those videos that remind me an Advanced Admin Class in Excell. I remember when I was stunned to find advanced features in one of the complex commands and asked: "Is this a new feature?". The instructor replied, "since 1997". Excel is such a huge boatload of functions and possibilities, it can be overwhelming and many don't use more than 1% of the functions anyhow. As a developer, it is always refreshing to see more and more usages for those features and functions. Thank you for the video. Loved it!

There's nothing wrong with using Excel as a database, in spite of what some people will tell you. Especially if you have a low number of records and if you have issues with getting the know-how to create and use databases (such as in MS-Access) instead. Some people just don't have the time.

Hard disagree. Excel might be okay for small scale projects. Or as a way to write up your initial batch of data if the alternatives are lacking. But with bigger data, Excel gets inefficient real fast. Not to mention it is way too easy to mess things up. In many cases, Excel is a necessary evil as the managers don't wanna invest into better databases. But that is just incompetence; it doesn't make Excel suitable at all.

I actually learned a lot of the Tipps while doing your courses but definitely the merge and center cells is the most annoying thing I usually see in lots of files. Thanks for sharing this video Mynda!

Great tips! I fully agree with table formatting (5:50) however, row- and column formatting are internally stored just like that - the (default) format for an entire row or column, and not as the formatting of a million cells for a single column. Still, it's adding formatting to unused cells which can be distracting and look sloppy, so it's good to avoid it where better alternatives are available.

Thanks for this - glad to see some of my personal fixations mentioned - especially Merge/Centre and External Links. For the automatic updating of rows included in a sum I find it simpler to set my SUMs up to include a blank row and to include that in the sum. e.g. if the data is in A1:A8 the the sum will be in A10 and it will be '=SUM(A1:A9)'. Then if I need to insert a row in the sum I just insert at A9 (not A10) and the sum updates automatically.

Another technique I use for formatting a worksheet. I don't insert unnecessary columns or rows. Adding columns at the left (column A...) and/or rows at the top (row 1...) complicate print margin adjustments. Also, avoid inserting intermediate columns/rows that are empty but color formatted/filled for visual separation purposes. Format cells containing data with borders. Keeping data as contiguous as possible helps when using keyboard shortcuts for worksheet navigation (Ctrl+Home, Ctrl-End, etc.), and helps when creating/troubleshooting formulas.

Good advice. The thing about range formatting was a bit simplified, though. Excel does not generally save formatting for an entire row on a cell by cell basis but of course excessive formatting and copying and pasting and cutting and inserting can cause problems. But one thing I feel is missing is data tables stored as range with autofilter where people add new columns without updating the autofilter. Result is a partial filter that will make a total mess of those added columns next time someone does a sort with the autofilters.

To keep things as simple as possible, I'm not sure that adding in Power Query is needed. To avoid using linked workbooks, one can have a tab that is a duplicate of the external data, then just simply copy/paste the external data to the internal tab. I prefer a well-written VBA macro for consistency, to reduce the injection of human error, and to speed up the process. While this method may increase the size of the workbook, it also serves to contain all of the data in one place, which makes drilling down into the details easier for those in management who need answers. You can also use Dynamic Named Ranges, which is a bit daunting at first. The size of the data being calculated doesn't have to be thousands of rows since the 'Dynamic' part of DNR means that it calculates the size of the range and uses only that many rows. Even with the overhead of those DNR calculations, it can speed the process immensely! I helped a fella who was lamenting how long his workbooks took to calculate, on the order of 3-4 minutes. Using DNR, we were able to get them down to about 45 seconds. That's still not blazingly fast, but a big improvement overall. (Just that one improvement impressed him enough that it turned into a promotion that carried me the next 8 years of my career.) Having a consistent pattern of design is really important when managing large numbers of workbooks, too. But that goes beyond the scope of her excellent video tutorial. I think the biggest take-away is that folks shouldn't be afraid to learn new stuff, and then just try it. Once it works out to your benefit, you'll want to learn and apply even more tricks and tips. Thank you to MyOnlineTrainingHub Lady! Great job!

@@hotflashfoto Thank you for your tips. I will try to use DNR as I am working with lists containing tens of thousands of rows. I havent learned VBA yet. Hopefully in future.
