Give it a go Insert Ribbon – Illustrations Menu

3. iPhone Calculator Tip

The wee little pain of entering one too many numbers in your calculator. Don’t start again, instead swipe left by the number 2 to remove it (image below) swipe right by the 4 to remove it

Thanks to Trevor Duffin for reminding me of this tip (that I showed at the 2015 Bayley’s conference)

5. What’s Your Favourite Excel (or Sheets) Trick/Tip

When I asked myself this question – the first thing that came to mind was Text To Columns.

The next thought was “oh my goodness, I use so many every day – how can just one be singled out?”

This brought on the thought to run a little survey, gathering favourite tips and tricks from readers. If you respond to this very simple survey – I’ll send you all the responses tabulated. Who knows what we all will learn?

Please take a moment to respond. I’m only going to ask the name of the tip; what it does and where it’s located and your name/email address so I can share with you the survey responses with you.

For example my tip

Name: test to columns
Where: Data Ribbon – Data Tools
What: It will separate out any text within the column to more columns. Ask it to look for spaces and it will separate Debbie Mayo-Smith from one to two columns. Ask it to look for @ signs, debbie@debbiespeaks.com becomes debbie and the second column is debbiespeaks.com.
