Default Hi I'm New and need help with Excel Basics

How would you add the contents of the cells from A1 to A10.

=SUM(A1:A10)
or
=A1+A2+A3+A4+A5+A6+A7+A8+A9+A10


How do you format a cell to have dollar signs next to the
numbers?


Click the currency button on the formatting tool bar or use a
custom number format of $#,##0.00

How do you add the contents of cells A1 through A10 on sheet 1
and make
the answer show up on sheet 2?


=SUM('Sheet1'!A1:A10)

How do you rename a sheet?


Right click the sheet tab and choose Rename


How do I freeze rows or columns of the sheet so that they
don't'
move when you scroll up or down? Example: My name is in Column
A, when
I scroll right my mane stays on the screen and column B moves
behind A


Select cell B1 and choose Freeze Panes from the Window menu.

How do you add up all the contents of column D and make the
answer show
up in column C?


=SUM(D:D)
