| WIDENING COLUMNS
You probably noticed, as you typed in the numbers, some
of the words were just too wide for the default cell
width (Investments and Miscellaneous - just like Bonzo). Let's widen
column B to take care of this.
Slowly move the mouse arrow to the right edge of the B
cell (between the B and the C). It will turn into an arrow
pointing right and left with a small vertical line in the middle.
Hold down the left mouse button and drag
the line to the right.
As soon as you start to drag a dotted vertical line
will go down the spreadsheet and move as you hold down the
left button and drag the mouse. Keep dragging to the
right until you are past the widest word and a
bit more (for some space). Release the button. The column is
widened. Notice in the upper left corner of the screen, below File
in the menu bar, and above the buttons, that as you hold down and
drag that it tells you that current width of the column.
This is one way to widen a column. Here is another way.
Point to the B at the top of column B (in the Gray
area) and click the left mouse button (The cell should turn black
and the column turn blue.).
Now, keeping the cursor somewhere in the "blue"
area, click the Right Mouse Button.
Notice that a menu with Column Width… appears. Click-on
Column Width… and type in 15. This is another
way to widen a column.
