Merge+Cells

When using excel, there is more than one way to format cells. You can begin by highlighting the cells that you wish to format. Then you can either manually do it through clicking on the tabs on the top such as Merge cells which is under alignment or change the colors under font. It depends what you want to do with the following text that you are planning to format. For example: I want to merge and center my cells and then put them in currency $ with two decimals.

//For example: I want to merge cells and change the numbers to currency .//
 * 1) You can begin by left clicking the cell you wish to change, click on format cells. In alignment click on merge cells.
 * 2) Next click on currency and make sure it has the dollar symbol [$] and two decimal places.

As you can see, there are two ways that you could format cells, either by manually doing it from using the tabs on the top. Or also by just left clicking on the cells you wish to format and going from there. When your doing more than one formatting change, personally, i find it easier to just left click and click on format cells. but if your just planning on making one change you can manually just do it from teh tabs on the top. Hope this was helpful !
