Answer 1

Microsoft Office Excel is a spreadsheet application written and distributed by Microsoft for Microsoft Windows and Mac OS X. It features calculation, graphing tools, pivot tables and a macro programming language called VBA (Visual Basic for Applications). It is overwhelmingly the dominant spreadsheet application available for these platforms and has been so since version 5 in 1993, and is bundled as part of Microsoft Office. Excel is one of the most popular microcomputer applications to date.

Answer 2

excel is an electronic speadsheet, with blank cells where you can enter numbers words etc. The part that makes excel intresting is the fact that you can perform all sorts of functions on each cell, and any one cell can be related to another cell



So If I had the number 10 in cell A1 and the number 20 in the cell B1, I could then write a small formula in cell C1 that said

=sum(A1+B1)



So the cell in C1 will always give me the sum of A1 and B1

even if I change the values from the first two cells.



excel has really been around since early 1990, and was the windows version of a very popular DOS based spreadsheet

called "Lotus 123"



The menu bars and tool bars are just areas of the window.

the tool bars have icons where you can perform quick adjustments to the font or some feature of the cell.

Answer 3

Microsoft Excel is a spreadsheet program.



It is very useful for accounting, calculating the results of mathematic formulas on large data sets, et cetera.



The title bar is the bar at the very top of the screen when you maximize the window.



The menu bar is the bar that shows "File", then "Edit", et cetera - it is just below the title bar.



The standard tool bar provides shortcuts to Excel features - and it's just below the menu bar.
