    I can't believe this 12 year old video helped me out more than my professor, my TA, or any recent excel tutorial

    Every now and then I stumble on a formula that I forgot about or should have been using. The percent of change formula you used in this video is one I had forgotten about, but will start using againg. Thanks!! I typically use the =(NewAmount-OldAmount)/OldAmount to get my percent of total, but your formula is much more efficient. Appreesh my friend!!

    However, I may have been incorrect in my language in the video by using the term percentage. But the bottom line, when you see the number 0.12 or the percentage 12%, the machine uses only the 0.12 for calculating and the 12% is not a number it is a formatted symbolic representation of a number.

    Dear PrincessWithSkills,
    Everyday that I use Excel I am learning new things, and every other day, I think to myself, "I am not sure that I even know a little bit about Excel!!!"
    That is how much there is. But this is good -- We'll always have fun learning new things.

I took excel expert but I was not able to create the dual axis chart. the chart has the primary axis as column and the secondary as line. the chart has to show only where the two chart has value but if the secondary has 0 as value don't show the column data of the primary.

  • @excelisfun
    @excelisfun  11 ปีที่แล้ว

    That is not correct. (a/b-1)*100 is a formula that was invented before calculators. The *100 is just for the facade: it is just a formatting that you use on paper. In calculators and Excel, when you apply the % format, the decimal number is still being used by the code underneath. 0.12 is a number. 12% is a symbolic formatted representation of the number 0.12. As an example, does 0.12 = 12? The answer is FALSE. So when you multiple a/b-1*100 you are fundamentally changing the number.

When I try, the markers go in between the column graphs. i would like to keep them bang in the middle. Otherwise the graph does not make sense. Help appreciated.
