Now we'll type some more. Go to

C3 SEPT (Type in and tap Enter)

 

Notice again how SEPT is automatically left aligned. Logically, since you are using Excel in the English version, the text is left aligned so that all of the text lines up nicely in the column cells. One way to do center SEPT is to simply click-on the Center button in the button bar at the top of the screen. Make sure that you are ON cell C3 when you click (see image above right).

 

Another way to do this is to center the word simply click right on cell C3. Then click on Format Cells.

 

When the Format Cells Menu appears, click-on the – Alignment Tab and then click-on -- Horizontal - Center --Vertical - Center -- OK. Try it.

This is how you can align words for neatness. You can also point to several cells you want aligned and do this. We'll try that next.

Now type in the cells indicated.

D3 OCT

E3 NOV

F3 DEC

G3 MONTHLY TOTALS (correct the width)

 

Next we’ll highlight cells D3 through G3. To do this, point to D3 and click the Left

Mouse button. Then, holding down the left mouse button, drag the mouse to the right through G3 – when the cells are highlighted – take your finger off of the left mouse button. Then point to the group of cells and click the right mouse button to bring up the Format Cells menu. Click on Alignment and choose Center. Then point to OK and click the left mouse button. All of the cells will then be as you desire. Finish off by clicking on Center.

You could also click the Center button as you did before.

MONTHLY TOTALS will not fit its space when you do this. But, you know what to do. Move the cursor over the line between cells G and H and drag the line to the right to widen the G cell just like you did a few minutes ago.
