    I have taken to learning excel on a full time after my retirement in May 2017. First it started as a hobby and now it has become an obsession since it gives me a lot of happiness. I almost spend 4 to 5 hours going through all the excel videos that come in TH-cam and practice each one of them. I can definitely say that the way you teach excel is simply fantastic. All the explanations are extremely crisp.
    Hats off to your work

    Excellent video! Thank you so much.
    When the cursor is inside a block of data, press Ctrl + A to select the block of data instead of dragging the cursor.
    When copying down a formula in a column adjacent to existing data, select first cell to be copied, hover mouse over that cell's lower right corner until it becomes a cross and then double click to automatically copy down the formula or content of the first cell into the cells beneath it down to the last row of data in the adjacent column. This technique is faster than dragging down the cursor over the target cells.
    Thank you kindly.

    1. Not Appear - Better replace with zeros and use formatting to show Text "Not appear. THanks to that pivot and formulas will work better.
    2. Instead of looking for Errors it's better to create formula that handles the errrors, such as IFERROR.
    3. Ctrl+J - brilliant!
    4. (*) - also clever.

    Hi - I have a workbook with 13 sheets. Each sheet has a table which tracks weekly data. Each week I manually add a new row to the top of the table for the newest weeks data and update the formatting and formula in the new row, for each sheet. I then manually update formulas about the table which tracks MIN, MAX, SUM and AVG. Is it possible to automate these steps for all 13 sheets?
