1. how to insert text to
A lot of document creators (especially business owners) find themselves in situations where quite
a bit of easy, tedious work must be carried out. This includes a broad variety of potential problems
but one of the most prevalent is the need to change/add text into many Excel cells at one time.
This is particularly frequent when large spreadsheets of information need to be properly altered. It
is also typical for students who wish to modify lab reports or other Excel spreadsheets. This
addition of text usually requires a simple ‘copy' and ‘paste' action where text is simply added to a
cell in the spreadsheet. While this is an easy task, the repetition and monotony can quickly wear
on an individual.
Currently, the ‘best' free option accessible is the time-tested method of opening each
spreadsheet, manually altering each cell in the spreadsheet, saving the file, and then closing each
document. This type of work is very easy to do but requires large blocks of time. In Excel, it may
be as simple as typing the desired text and dragging a box around the desired cells to copy
information into them. For a business trying to update its files, this may need to be carried out to
thousands of cells in different spreadsheets. One option is to dedicate resources toward the task
until it is complete. This may then have an individual involved for hours, days, or even weeks
based upon the volume of spreadsheets needing to be edited. Generally everyone's time is better
spent on other, more lucrative tasks.
A huge productivity boost is available through a simple stop at www.hothotsoftware.com. Simply
searching for ‘How to Add Text to Excel Cells' produces a program precisely written to meet your
Excel file needs. The program is actually written to work inside the Excel spreadsheet program
itself. This means that after opening Microsoft Excel, you will see an additional tab in the ribbon
bar across the top of the window. This new tab will say ‘Add Custom Text to Cells'. This tab
consists of a classic user interface that allows even a basic computer user to understand and
master the software in a short amount of time. From this point, any number of cells inside the
spreadsheet may be chosen. Then, select the ‘Add Custom Text to Cells' tab. There are then six
selections for text changes in the documents. These modifications are split into two different
sections. The top section has three distinct options: one to add text at the beginning of each
cell(s), add text to the end of each cell, and finally adding text at ‘X' numerical position in each
cell. The lower customization section allows for a custom phrase to be inserted and then text to
be added before or after this custom phrase. There is also the ability for the custom phrase to be
found and then changed.
