    Red face Troubleshooting the worksheet?

    This is the very last thing on my section for excel in class so any help would be appreciated. The task says to "demonstrate troubleshooting the worksheet" and what I would like to know is how to do that. How IS this done? I feel stupid for not knowing how to do it. Please help!!!!!

    Wouldn't that imply that you look for errors on your worksheet and fix them?

    Hard to tell without seeing the worksheet.

    How so? I just need to know how to do it in general. Why would you need to see the worksheet? Do you need an example to show me how to do it?

    I don't know that there is a way to do what you want in "general". There are probably a thousand things that can happen to a worksheet to make it have errors or require troubleshooting. Think of it this way, it would be like you telling a mechanic that you want your car fixed without giving him/her your car to look at!

    Formulas tab - Error Checking button.
    Data tab - Data Validation dropdown - circle invalid data.
    Everyone who confuses correlation and causation ends up dead.

    Luckily for you, romperstomper is a mechanic that can fix a car before he looks at it!
