Three types of data are introduced into the table cells: text, number, formula. According to the first character, Calc determines that it is introduced: if it is a letter or apostrophe, then this is the text if the number is the number if the equal sign is a formula. To enter data, you need to move to the desired cell, dial data and press ENTER or the cursor move key on the keyboard. Data in cells are edited in several ways:

1) by pressing the left mouse button and fill it, and the previous data will be removed;

2) by pressing the cell with the left mouse button and function key F2 on the keyboard, while the cursor flies in the cell at the end of the word;

3) by pressing twice to the cell with the left mouse button (similar to Pressing F2).

To select the data format, you must use the command Format\u003e Cells\u003e Numbers And then specify the desired format (Fig. 17).

If the text is not included in the cell, then choose one of the ways:

• push the boundaries of the cells horizontally, getting the cursor to the border between the column letters (the arrow of the cursor turns into a bidirectional arrow), and while holding down left key mice shifting the border to the required distance;
• we combine several cells and write text in them. To do this, select several adjacent cells and choose the path through the main menu: Format\u003e Combine Cells (do the same through the toolbar);
• we organize the transfer of text in the cell according to: Format\u003e Cells\u003e Alignment\u003e Transfer according to (Fig. 18).

If the number is not included in the cell, Calc displays it either in exponential form (1230000000 - 1.23E + 09), or instead of the number puts the signs ####. Then push the borders of the cell.

The double click of the left mouse button on the cell entered entered into the data editing mode. In this case, the pointer acquires the view vertical line (cursor).

The transition to the data editing mode will also carry out the click on the input row.

Similarly, we carry out other cell settings. Consider more detail Format\u003e Cells. The first tab of the number (see Fig. 17) allows you to select the data format and setting the selected format, for example, the numeric format allows you to specify number of initial zeros, fractional part , the possibility of separation to discharge, allocation of different color negative numbers. Viewing different formatsWe will see the settings produced for them.

The following tabs are Font and Effects font (Fig. 19 and 20).

Tab Alignmentbriefly described in Fig. eighteen.

To framing the table, perform the following settings:

• Line position: The predetermined style is selected, which will be applied. For this purpose there is also a button Frameon the toolbar Formatting.
• Line: Select the style of the border to be used. This border applies to the borders selected in preview. On the toolbar Formattingyou can also add a button. Line style. Indicate here Color linewhich will be used for selected borders.
• Indentation from content, That is, the size of the interval that will be left between the boundary and the contents of the selection, from the specified side. The use of the same interval to the contents to all four borders when entering a new distance we carry out by installing a tick near Synchronize.
• Shadow style: The shadow effect is applicable to the boundaries. To achieve the best results, we use this effect only when all four borders are visible. Here you choose Position, Widthand Colorshadow

To select the pouring cells, you must specify the color that will be displayed in the sample (field on the right).

The last tab is Cells (Fig. 23). We specify the following parameters:

Protection:

• Hide everything - We hide the formulas and content of selected cells.
• Protected- Forbid changing the selected cells.
• Hide formulas - We hide the formulas in the selected cells.

Print:

• The sheet print parameters are determined. Hide under seals - Ban the seal of the selected cells.
