      I used Excel years ago.
      And now after about 20 years
      I am using it again.
      One thing I found to be very irritating is this version of
      Excel fights with me.
      I needed to insert about 200
      columns in a spreadsheet
      I was working on.
      Excel would follow my commands for a while, then it would refuse to do it and was trying to tell me a faster way of doing it {I think}.
      And I had to fake it out and do some random thing and sneak back to insert the columns.
      This was a cat and mouse game.
      It was exhausting to have
      to fight with this software.
      In your examples you never
      show the software doing this.
      How do I stop it from doing this?

    Everytime you explain something it becomes clear that you are more interested in people *learning* *new* *skills* rather than people *admiring* *your* *skills* . (Just as is your 'german counterpart' Andreas Thehos - if you don't mind me to mention him here.)

    Great video as usual. I always learn something from your videos. Thanks!
    One thing I just discovered: You can now enter a range, with out a surrounding function--that is, all by itself, (like =A4:B10) and it will act like all the other spillable functions, copying the range. Nothing earth-shaking about that, but you can also do things like: (A4:A10 + B4:B10), and Excel will do the operation for every cell in the range(s) and put the results into a new spilled range.

    • @LeilaGharani
      @LeilaGharani  3 года назад +4

      Hi Ken - Yes - this is the new calculation engine of Excel. Before you used to get an error or just one value because Excel couldn't "show" the other ones on the grid, but now because of the spill behavior, it can spill every cell below.

    what i actually learned from this video is the UNIQUE function :)
    This will be super helpful, because what i used to do is to copy the entire range of data to another new worksheet, and then use the remove duplicate function to leave me with unique value.
    This UNIQUE function going to make my process steps more efficient in the future.
    Thank you.

    This is excellent work and thank you for it. I did have trouble following because I didn't know what a Spilled Range was at the start.

      I'm brand new to this too - but found the explanation of spilled tables in this video adequately covered that.

  • @lpanades
    @lpanades 8 месяцев назад

    @LeilaGharani, why Excel has not a key, like Microsof Word, to show special features like spill formula's cells. You push the "¶"(pilcrow symbol) and the cells with formulas and spilled formulas get some kind of formatation to show it easyer. Same as formated cells, for example blank formated cells and so on.
    I love using {} inside collumns of INDEX function to select which collumns to show from a spilled range and the orther to show them.

    • @rudiklein
      @rudiklein 3 года назад

      Well, I was happy too soon. Counting unique fields ( with MAX(SEQUENCE()) ) in a TABLE column doesn't work well when the column is filtered. It keeps counting the whole of the column in the table. I've been looking for a solution to calculate average cost per month, based on the number of months in the selection. Back to the drawing board :-)

    Wow, thank you. I did not even know excel had multi-value returns. Its interesting that different programming languages added this over the years and now excel has it also... it just dumps multi-value returns to new columns and rows. Now I got to train my brain on how to use it. BTW, Excel is like another programming language itself to me.

    To get back a specific part of the spilled range, can also use the FILTER function:
