Excel Data Entry Tricks: Insert Data into Multiple Cells at Once in Excel

In this video I'll show you how to insert data into multiple cells at once using this Excel Data Entry Trick.

This Excel data entry trick can be done using the following steps:

1 - Use the auto fill option to create headings like months and item numbers.

2 - You'll then select the data range / range of cells.

3 - Once the data range is selected, you'll go directly into writing your formula or data in the top left cell and then type CTRL + Enter and this will automatically fill all cells that have been selected with that formula or data.

Using formulas like rand or randbetween will allow you to quickly enter data and insert data into multiple cells at once in Excel.

IS there anyway you can formulate it so instead of going through all that
Say for example I wanted to enter a number into a cell but i also wanted it to appear in at least 12 others randomly located on the spread sheet I can just type the data in the first cell and excel automatically populate it into the others for me
