Wow! I spent half the night watching your channel. Highly recommend that even advanced users watch your tutorials. I've been using Excel for 25 years and love it. I knew many of your tips already but it was so worth watching anyway. The new functions I learnt will save me many hours.
Great content, some I knew, some I did not, but it's always great to see things from another perspective. Watching this tutotial was totally worth it. Thank you!
Vielen Dank für ein riesige Information für Microsoft Excel, die Zusammenfassung ist voll gelungen. Ob es jede so korrekt schaffen wird, fraglich. Sehr Hilfreich! Respekt!
Wow, as someone who is quite advanced already I can definitely say that this contains almost all advanced tips I would like people to know, plus a few more I didn't completely know yet. Well done!
@@HowToExcelBlog This is very use full tips of the Using Excel there are more tips www.inspizone.com/ms-office-course-singapore/advanced-excel-course-singapore/
@@HowToExcelBlog Yes, I rewound in one or two places. I'm not saying that you went too fast. You were great! I'm saying it was an even more enjoyable ride at 2x. Thank you!
OMG! Just the Ideas tip was worth the time to watch this video! I had noticed the Idea button but I'm in the process of designing an executive dashboard (using the functions I already know) and was too focused on that to try out something new. Voila! Ideas will auto create a few of the charts I had planned. But the best thing Ideas did was present 35 options but most were not useful because of the way my data was structured. So rather than spend my time creating pivot tables and charts, I reorganized my data and let Ideas create the charts.
Love the content of this video and your way of teaching! Thanks for the video which gave me inspiration for my own classes (I give basic Excel training to students) 😊
Hi John.. great list.. a real workout. One thing to note.. I don't think you need to use INDIRECT on a Data Validation list with the Source referencing a formal EXCEL table. Even though you can't reference the table name itself in the Source field and instead must highlight the actual range address of the table, when subsequently adding data to the table, the range address automatically expands within the Data Validation Source definition. So, no INDIRECT reference to the table name is needed. If data is in a list but not an EXCEL table, then INDIRECT or OFFSET or INDEX can all be used to make it dynamic in conjunction with a Named Range. Just thought I would mention it, as I discovered this feature one day which is a time saver. Thanks for all the excellent tips and tricks.. great stuff! Thumbs up!!
Hmm, I didn't know that about using a regular range reference. I just assumed it wouldn't grow with the table. Will have to try it out. Indirect will have the problem of needing to change the data validation if you ever change the table name, so regular reference might be better.
@@HowToExcelBlog Hi John.. for a list not in an EXCEL table, my go to method is either: =OFFSET($B$3,,,COUNTA($B$3:$B$20)) which is volatile, but can be entered directly into the Source field of the Data Validation definition or =$B$3:INDEX($B$3:$B$20,COUNTA($B$3:$B$20)) which is not volatile but requires giving a range name to use in Data Validation Source. In both cases, I defined a range down to B20 to give myself room for the list to grow. I'm sure you know these.. just using this as an excuse to practice them again and share my results. Thanks again for all the great insights and inspiration to learn. Thumbs up!
Data Validation :Select the column in your data entry table that you wish to add data validation to. Go to Data/Data Validation or Alt + D + L to open the Data Validation window. Select “List” from the “Allow” dropdown menu. Hit the F3 key and select your defined name from the “Paste Name” box .Now every cell in the column will contain data validation that is restricted to the values in the “Data Validation List” column. If you add another row to the Data Validation table, this will automatically appear in the drop down menus you have just created
Hello, John. I've been using pivot tables and viewing numerous relevant YT videos a lot recently, but I did pick up something new just now - your final tip about adding two tables to a data model and using both tables in the pivot table. Nice - thank you! 🦾
Amazing video I think Excel has the option to distinct in pivots - if you added to Data model before excuting, as far as i remember it was in the value calculation when you click in the values section.
Thank you so much for the video! Very well explained with crystal clear instructions. I would like to ask on Hide and Unhide feature in Excel. Do you know if there is any hotkey available or an easier way to Unhide all hidden columns and rows at the same time?
Hi John. Well done, long and comprehensive video. Is it planned in future touch more power pivot, dax, and data modeling? Thanks for sharing You knowledge?
Excel has many different versions. It will be a good practice to mention which Excel version is the video talking about. Maybe for most part, they are common for different versions and this is good, but there are issues which differ from one version to another and this confuses the user. In this particular video and first tip, I am using 2013 version and I don't have "from folder" option. Also different options in "From other sources" are very strange for me and I couldn't understand them. I should search in Internet for their meaning and usage.
Hello thank you for your nice tips! very interesting! but I have an issue on the first tips about Getting data from folders, when I remove one excel files I can not refresh anymore my table. Do you have any tips? thank you
Your classes are great! i love it. Is there a way to filter between times? Say for instance, I have a courier team who drives medical supplies back and forth all day. So we have 1st shift, 2nd shift, 3rd shift, overnight and weekend shift. I have 6 months worth of data and i was trying to see overnight shift only. So i wanted to filter it to where i only see routes picking up items from 10:30pm to 7:00am. Is this possible? do you have a tutorial on how to do that if it is possible? Please advise. :)
These are great tips, but for the first tip: isn't it too complicated for adding a file in a sheet in a workbook? For what purpose would you use it this way? Thank you!
@@HowToExcelBlog thanks a lot for replying to my message. Subscribing to your channel is really valuable. Keep up the good work and Thanks a lot again.
Nice demonstration, but I want to add that the new functions are also available on Microsoft's web based version of Excel, so there is no need for Office 365 if anyone wants to casually try these out.
Thank you for this lesson, really useful tips! I am really interested in advanced filter, I used it some time ago, but the biggest problem is that you can't make it adjusted for end user, as you you have table with some parameters above the table, every time you changed the data you applied filter by yourself. Do you know is it possible to auto-filter cells based on filled in data?
thanks for the great video. i have one little problem though: i want to add columns to my queried table, but as soon as new data is added to the table, the data from the new columns loses its reference. is there a ways to keep the data in the right place when new data is added?

You can create a column that calculates the shift, then filter on that.

Adding a single file, yes! But combining data from hundreds of files, it will be the easiest way.
