An Excel worksheet needs to be designed and implemented to suit the specific nature of cell structure and function. Here is a brief overview of the cell structure and function and how they are used in an Excel worksheet.
Cell Structure and Function The cell structure and function are the smallest part of any Excel worksheet. The cell structure describes the dimension of the cell and how it is arranged within the overall structure. The cell structure in turn describes the size of the individual cells in the cell structure.
The cell structure is actually a diagram that shows the location of the cells within the cell structure. It is possible to create a cell structure that corresponds to a particular column, row, or cell that can be used for performing the various functions of a spreadsheet. It can be specified as either the horizontal, vertical, or a combination of the two. This means that you can specify the cell structure from which a particular function is then derived.
The horizontal cell structure is typically used in a worksheet where the largest size of the cell is used. The vertical cell structure is commonly used for creating sheets where the structure of the cell is arranged from top to bottom.
The size of the cells within the cell structure determines the amount of information that is contained within the cell. In many instances the amount of information within a cell is based on the height of the cell. Cells that are wider than other cells are always going to have more information. This gives the cells a more complicated appearance to view.
The cell function relates to the columns, rows, and other aspects of the structure. A cell function also relates to the cell structure and is generally defined as the code that describes how the cells in the cell-structure function. In fact you can define a cell to function as a name and a code that are associated with the cell structure.
The cell function is normally used to explain the format of the data within the cells. For example if you are creating a worksheet that deals with the collection of customers, the customer information can be defined as a cell function by the Excel users.
With this overview of the cell structure and function, it becomes clear why it is vital to understand these structures and functions when designing and developing an Excel worksheet. You will also be able to use the cell structure and function to design the format and design of the worksheet.
