How to Use Excel Templates
Using a template is about choosing the one that perfectly suit the purpose. If you for instance want to do event planning, pick the template that is for event planning. You will learn how to use a template.
Choose the one
Open Microsoft Excel and click on the “File” tab in the ribbon.
Select the template you want to use and click the “Create” button.
The template will open in a new Excel workbook, and you can start entering your own data.
Some templates may contain sample data that you can replace with your own. Be sure to follow the instructions provided in the template to use it correctly.
Once you’ve entered your data, you can save your new workbook as a regular Excel file by clicking the “Save As” button in the “File” tab and selecting the location where you want to save it.
Note: Think creatively, even if you think you don’t see any template that suit your needs. For example, you want to know how to plan for a project trip, you could choose the vacation planner.
Template formatting
