Advanced Tips

Enter Multiple Lines In An Excel Cell
When you have multiple-choice type questions, you may find that using more than one line in a cell improves your worksheet's appearance. For example, if you would like to enter a question, followed by choices A, B, C, and D, you could enter the question on one line of the cell, then enter choice A on the next line, and so on. To try this, click cell A1 and type your question. Now press Alt + Enter and type your first answer choice. You now have two lines in the same cell. Excel will adjust the cell height to accommodate the text.

Protecting Self-Checking / Self-Grading Excel Spreadsheets
The various cells in the Self-Checking / Self-Grading Excel Spreadsheets have already been locked/unlocked and hidden according to need.  All you have to do to protect your sheet is simply make your desired information changes and then follow these steps:

  • Tools (top menu)

  • Protect Sheet (a choice from the "Protection" pop out menu)
