You can protect cells, worksheets, and workbooks in Excel with a password (or without one). Once a worksheet is protected, you’ll need to enter the password to access it (in case a password has been applied).

Note that Excel in-built security feature is not very strong and you can easily open worksheets/workbooks that have been locked. However, if you want to quickly protect it before sending it to your manager/client (so they don’t end up changing anything by mistake), it works well.

I know the answer is 120 after looking into it further I was wondering if there’s a way to get to this answer using countifs, if so how? I thought it would look something like this =countifs(b1:b100, “3**”, b1:b100, “*3*”, b1:b100, “**3”) but clearly have it wrong.

  46. The courses offered and the way these are structured are
    meant to lay a firm and solid foundation to build upon.
    Everybody builds their own home on a foundation. When it is a good, properly laid, will make one’s home sitting on a solid foundation.

    Mr. SB has taken time, mastered the Excel, excited by its capabilities, organised it and prepared to teach his students in a simple and direct way.
    With an average enthusiasm to learn, one can learn from these videos and lay a firm and solid foundation to one’s career, using this excellent program called Excel.

    Like air we breathe, Sunshine we enjoy, moonlight we adore, his free teachings are GOD’s gift to any body that want learn a new skill.

    The organisation, time, effort and passion has to be really appreciated.

    I see lot of people asking for a pat in the back ( like looking for a certificate of completion ), this is a SELF-HELP course, and I am not sure I will have as much information given to me even if I attended a PAID COURSE.

    And again, since I am learning this on my own to improve MY understanding of spreadsheet program, I can understand and appreciate why some persons want to squeeze a CERTIFICATE out of this as a ticket for a future job.

    Mr. Bansal,
    Pranam to you, as a teacher who put in all this time into these video courses and offering it for free. I bow to you for your kind heart.

    Goddess Saraswathi has blessed you, may her blessings be showered upon you into the future, so we all get at least a part of those blessings.

    Namaste !

  106. Thanks very much for tutorials, I like to know if there is a way to make just a cell behave as a normal calculator.
    i.e this cell should be capable of summing figures that appears in another cell, while keeping last cumulative figure visible.
    This other cell will be the key-in cell or active cell.
    Example:
    Cell 1: =2*5, Answer appears in Cell 2,
    Cell 1: =3*6.8, Answer is added to the previous value resulting from (2*5) and still appears in cell 2.

    Now I have a question, not about your course, but if you coluld solve this problem I would be grateful.
    Do you know how to get rid of the usernaume in comments? I know I could go via Alternative/Genereral/Microsoft Office/Username etc. but that does not solve the problem.
    If I put a space instead of my name, or my initials, it still writes “:” in bold character and I want a empty comment when I start writing in it.

    I think it must be solved by VBA code? And I don’t know how to write it, so if you know, and if you can help me, I would appreciate that.

    I think it is very annoying that I have to delete my name (or initials) in everey new comment I make. Must be a way to get around it?

    Kind regards,
    Leif Norinder
