Getting Started with Excel | Excel Introduction 01

Here is a short video on Getting Started with Excel. Opening Excel, typing in text and numbers, and then adding dates. We will use formatting like bold. We will use comma styles to make numbers easier to read. We will cover alignment - left, center, and right alignment. Text data is aligned to the left by default. Numbers are aligned to right by default. This video covers countries, but it could be used for company locations, customers and their orders, employees and their hours worked, hospitals with patient id, and date admitted are just some examples.
