Make your Excel ready for 2017


So, you are one of those individuals or office employees who rely heavily on Excel to get along with the day to day chores of their office. Whether it be preparing detailed log sheets, itineraries, inventories or product lists, you can’t make head or tail out of them without going back to Excel for deliverance. If this is the case, then you are one among the many who feel that it lacks the Excel add-ons that would make it a breeze to use like all those other online programs that you use. It is not just that you consider it to be dreary work to do all those tasks yourself, it is also the fact that the modern day office has too much workload that has to be dispensed in too little time & as such going through multiple operations on whole batches of Excel files is just not practical enough. In today’s blog post, I’ll help you out in making your Excel ready for the next year in the office.


1.     Excel Power Tool  is one of the best add-ins that have been developed for any of the MS Office components. One of the biggest problems that people face while dealing with mountains of spreadsheets & workbooks is that of editing & eliminating pointless stuff from them. This small albeit powerful utility gives you the ability to edit multiple excel sheets at once. Duplicate data including numbers, characters & even spaces can be eliminated from hundreds of sheets at once. The potential of this tool is not limited to this. It has the additional ability to merge & split worksheets as well as unhide hidden worksheets. The work is automated at a pace that is worthy of the next generation office space.

2.      Excel ASAP Utilities is, in fact, a roll-up of more than 100 commands in the form of a small add-on. This is a tool that gives you the ability to do a lot more with your Excel than what you are accustomed to. Whether it be counting the words in a file, removing pointless data or copying data, this does all. This is a tool truly worthy of any guy’s wish list for the next upgrade to his Excel.

3.      Excel word count tool makes it to this list on the basis of feedback & requirement of numerous people who use Excel day in & day out in their office spaces. They all have the same qualm about Excel- why doesn’t it provide a ready word count option like MS Word. It is very important to have such an ability when you are dealing with multiple detailed logs & you need a precise count of the characters/words/sentences inside every row, column & cell of your worksheets. This utility gives you the ability to do the same with workbooks in a jiffy so that you are never left stranded for want of a precise log.

4.      Excel change case gives you the power to toggle cases- from lower case to upper case & vice versa, change sentence case, capital for first alphabet & so on. This makes it akin to Word by giving you the ability to make your spread sheets & workbooks office worthy. It makes them compatible for usage in formal scenarios.


The best part about all these add-on utilities is that they are compatible across Windows & Excel versions & take up very small space by accommodating themselves in a ribbon for easy access.
