Any prohibited reproduction, storage in a retrieval system, or transmission in any form or by any means, electronic, mechani-cal, photocopying, recording, or likewise. If you take advantage of the built-in styles for Excel 2007 - 2019, setting the AutoShape formatting is ridiculously easy compared to Excel 2003 and previous versions. Excel 2007 introduced the ShapeStyle property with the 42 preset styles shown below. The style numbers can be set using a simple line of code.
Excel 2019 makes it simple to create a new pivot table using a data list selected in your worksheet with its Quick Analysis tool. To preview various types of pivot tables that Excel can create for you on the spot using the entries in a data list that you have open in an Excel worksheet, simply follow these steps:
- Select all the data (including the column headings) in your data list as a cell range in the worksheet.If you’ve assigned a range name to the data list, you can select the column headings and all the data records in one operation simply by choosing the data list’s name from the Name box drop-down menu.
- Click the Quick Analysis tool that appears right below the lower-right corner of the current cell selection.
Doing this opens the palette of Quick Analysis options with the initial Formatting tab selected and its various conditional formatting options displayed. - Click the Tables tab at the top of the Quick Analysis options palette.
Excel selects the Tables tab and displays its Table and PivotTable option buttons. The Table button previews how the selected data would appear formatted as a table. The other PivotTable buttons preview the various types of pivot tables that can be created from the selected data. - To preview each pivot table that Excel 2019 can create for your data, highlight its PivotTable button in the Quick Analysis palette.
As you highlight each PivotTable button in the options palette, Excel’s Live Preview feature displays a thumbnail of a pivot table that can be created using your table data. This thumbnail appears above the Quick Analysis options palette for as long as the mouse or Touch pointer is over its corresponding button. - When a preview of the pivot table you want to create appears, click its button in the Quick Analysis options palette to create it.
Excel 2019 then creates the previewed pivot table on a new worksheet that is inserted at the beginning of the current workbook. This new worksheet containing the pivot table is active so that you can immediately rename and relocate the sheet as well as edit the new pivot table, if you wish.
The following figures show you how this procedure works. In the first figure, the fourth suggested PivotTable button in the Quick Analysis tool’s option palette is highlighted. The previewed table in the thumbnail displayed above the palette shows the salaries subtotals and grand totals in the Employee Data list organized whether or not the employees participate in profit sharing (Yes or No).
The second figure shows you the pivot table that Excel created when I clicked the highlighted button in the options palette in the preceding figure. Note this pivot table is selected on its own worksheet (Sheet1) that’s been inserted in front of the Employee Data worksheet. Because the new pivot table is selected, the PivotTable Fields task pane is displayed on the right side of the Excel worksheet window and the PivotTable Tools context tab is displayed on the Ribbon. You can use the options on this task pane and contextual tab to then customize your new pivot table.
Cheat engine 6.8.3. Note that if Excel can’t suggest various pivot tables to create from the selected data in the worksheet, a single Blank PivotTable button is displayed after the Table button in the Quick Analysis tool’s options on the Tables tab. You can select this button to manually create a new pivot table for the data.
I’ve saved the best for last, the one that folks are really excited for.
Microsoft has been ramping up the AI-enabled engines, and the latest addition is available now. There is no end to the amount of data that’s out there, on the Internet, ready to be accessed. Sure, we can look up data manually, and up until now, that’s what we’ve done.

But now? We can now stop wasting precious time using Google searches on readily available data and let Excel pull in the information for us. Right now, this functionality exists for stock and geographic data, but there’s no reason to doubt that won’t increase to more data lookups in the future.
To use these lookups, make sure your column contains either geographical data or company names. Select the data, and then click Data à Stocks or Geography.
From there, you can click a small icon and choose from a long list of available data fields to add to the next column. These are some options for the Geography choice. For stocks, you’ll see all sorts of data about each company.
Finally, you can click the small icon to the left of the cell and get a Bing lookup of some facts about that region, such as a Wikipedia lookup.
