                                                                                  cell.
            column letter and row number.


            CELLS
            The intersection of a row and a column is called a cell. A cell is the

            basic unit of a worksheet in which you enter data in the form of text,
            numeric values, formulas or functions. A cell in your worksheet is
            activated or selected for entering data into it. Each cell has a unique address. It is named
            after combining the name of a column and row.

            Address of cell: <Column letter><Row number>
            The address of the selected cell is B9 which is made after
            combining the column’s letter i.e. B and the row’s number i.e. 9.



            Active Cells
            A selected cell is known as the active cell. It has a dark border around it.


            FORMULA BAR

            The content  of the active  cell appears  in the
            formula bar. When  the  cell contains  text  or a
            fixed number, the content of the formula bar is
            the same as what you see in the cell.





            WORKSHEET TABS
            Excel files are called workbooks and a workbook

            can have multiple worksheets. Each worksheet has
            a tab at the bottom of the screen. We can add a
            new worksheet by left-clicking on the + sign.


            STATUS BAR
            Status bar is located at the bottom of the workbook window. It displays the status and
            results of the common functions used in Excel 2021.
