How do you make lines appear on an excel sheet?

I'm not sure what Version you're using, so I'll assume after Excel 2010. At the top of the page, under the Home tab and directly under the Font window, there is an icon which looks like a window frame (dotted all around except on the bottom edge). In your spreadsheet you have to select the area you want to work on. You can select a single cell to add lines to or the whole spreadsheet. Click on the icon I described above and a menu box will pop down. There many choices which allow you to select lines on all sides of your work. I prefer the one at the bottom which says 'More Borders'. With that window you select the edges you want lines on, the thickness/type of the line, or put an outline. I think that's enough for now and I hope that gets you started.

How do i subtract two cells and progress down a row by a day so the next day the formula subtracts the current day and previous day?

You have to start the sequence with a slightly different formula because there is no preceding value for Monday. 25525374-qztzwsd5tae24twsq5kxbvm0-3-0.jpg The rest of the formulas are running totals so they are the same just dynamically duplicated down the column add infinitum. 25525374-qztzwsd5tae24twsq5kxbvm0-3-2.jpg Just duplicate the the formula Picking up the value form the result column and subtracting the next running subtraction value.

What is the "&" symbol for in excel 2010?

The "&" symbol is commonly known as "ampersand" and it is a calculation operator. Ampersand can be used in Excel 2010 to join text items from different cells. It functions much similar as "CONCATENATE" function. The output value you will get by using ampersand function will be the same as the one you will get by using CONCATENATE function. For example, =A1 & B1 returns the same value as=CONCATENATE(A1, B1) To know more about the CONCATENATE/ ampersand function, you can refer to the following webpages: http://office.microsoft.com/en-in/excel-help/concatenate-function-HP010342288.aspx (Important: Below mentioned link is of a third-party website. We recommend you to update your security software thoroughly before clicking on the link.) http://excelsemipro.com/2010/08/concatenate-function-or-ampersand-operator-in-excel/ (Important: Below mentioned link applies to Excel 2007.

How do i get into a spreadsheet when i get a message saying it can't be opened

Hi, what is the exact error code you receive? If you can provide the exact error code or message, will narrow down troubleshoot. To get around the problem, try starting Excel in safe mode. The command is "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office14\EXCEL.EXE /s". To run the command: 1. Copy the above command without inverted commas. 2. Click Start and paste by pressing "Ctrl + V" and press the Enter key. See if this open Excel. Thereafter, exit Excel and try opening Excel again in normal mode without the "/s" switch at the end. If still having issue, suspect some of the system files may be corrupted. Run Office setup and hit Repair when prompted. Regards, Maha
