    What is meant by a range of cells in MS Excel?

    Question #105112. Asked by sona123. (Apr 27 09 10:37 PM)

    A range is a group or block of cells in a worksheet that have been selected or highlighted. When cells have been selected they are surrounded by a black outline or border.

    Normally there is only one cell in the worksheet with a black outline. This is the active cell. Whatever command is executed by Excel affects the active cell.

    Using the mouse, keyboard or Name Box, more than one cell can be selected to create a range, and commands executed by Excel will affect the entire range.

    2 This Calder Range
    I really like the Janet Dailey series, starting with this one 'This Calder Range'. It is really fun and interesting to read the whole series and think that it spans over 100 years. Enjoy taking this quiz. I plan to do quizzes on the whole series.
