• Question 13:

  You work as an Office Assistant for Tech Perfect Inc. You are working in the spreadsheet of the company's high selling products. You are trying to intersect two ranges that do not intersect each other. Which of the following errors will be occurred in this situation?

  A. #VALUE!
  B. #NAME?
  C. #NULL!
  D. #DIV/0!
  C. #NULL!

  ---

  The #NULL! error is produced by Excel when a user attempts to intersect two ranges that do not intersect each other. This error can be resolved by reviewing the formula and then either by changing the variables to ensure that the user is getting a valid intersection or by using the Excel Iferror function to identify a null range and take the required action. Answer option D is incorrect. Excel #DIV/0! is produced when a formula attempts to divide by zero and a division by zero produces infinity that cannot be represented by a spreadsheet value. This error can be corrected or overcome by using the Excel IF function to identify a possible division by zero and produce an alternative result. Answer option A is incorrect. The #VALUE! Excel formula error occurs when any of the variables in a formula is of the wrong type. To correct this error, it is required to check each individual part of the formula to make sure that the correct argument types are used. If the function contains nested functions, the best way is to copy each of the arguments into a separate cell to check what they evaluate to. If the formula contains a number of terms, break down each term further to find out its components, until the source of the error is found. Answer option B is incorrect. The #NAME? error occurs when Excel encounters text in a formula and tries to interpret that text as a reference, a named range, or a function name but is not able to recognize the text as any of these. The best way to approach the #NAME? Excel function error is to check the correct spelling of the function names, references, and named ranges and to check that the variables used as text values are entered in double quotes. If the formula contains nested functions, it is required to check the results of these individually, until the source of the error is identified.

• Question 14:

  You work as an Office Assistant for Media Perfect Inc. You have created a spreadsheet in Excel 2010 and shared it with the other employees of the company. You want to select password protection and select options to prevent other employees from changing, moving, and deleting important data.

  Which of the following options will you choose to accomplish the task?

  A. Mark as Final
  B. Protect Current Sheet
  C. Encrypt with Password
  D. Protect Workbook Structure
  D. Protect Workbook Structure

  ---

  The various Protect Workbook options are as follows:

  1.

  Mark as Final: This option is used to make the document read-only. When a spreadsheet is marked as final, various options such as typing, editing commands, and proofing marks are disabled or turned off and the spreadsheet becomes read-only. This command helps a user to communicate that he is sharing a completed version of a spreadsheet. This command also prevents reviewers or readers from making inadvertent modifications to the spreadsheet.

  2.

  Encrypt with Password: When a user selects the Encrypt with Password option, the Encrypt Document dialog box appears. In the Password box, it is required to specify a password. Microsoft is not able to retrieve lost or forgotten passwords, so it is necessary for a user to keep a list of passwords and corresponding file names in a safe place.

  3.

  Protect Current Sheet: This option is used to select password protection and permit or prohibit other users to select, format, insert, delete, sort, or edit areas of the spreadsheet. This option protects the worksheet and locked cells.

  4.

  Protect Workbook Structure: This option is used to select password protection and select options to prevent users from changing, moving, and deleting important data. This feature enables a user to protect the structure of the worksheet.

  5.

  Restrict Permission by People: This option works on the basis of Window Rights Management to restrict permissions. A user is required to use a Windows Live ID or a Microsoft Windows account to restrict permissions. These permissions can be applied via a template that is used by the organization in which the user is working. These permissions can also be added by clicking Restrict Access.

  6.

  Add a Digital Signature: This option is used to add a visible or invisible digital signature. It authenticates digital information such as documents, e-mail messages, and macros by using computer cryptography. These signatures are created by specifying a signature or by using an image of a signature for establishing authenticity, integrity, and non-repudiation.

  ---

  The Gantt Chart Template Deluxe Edition for Excel is used to generate quick and easy Gantt charts that define the progress of a user's projects containing up to 100 project tasks and team members. Answer option B is incorrect. A form control is an original control that is compatible with old versions of Excel, beginning with Excel version 5. 0. It is designed for use on XLM macro sheets. It can be used when a user wants to simply interact with cell data without using VBA code and when he wants to add controls to chart sheets. By using form controls, the user can run macros.

• Question 17:

  Rick works as an Office Assistant for Tech Perfect Inc. The company has a Windows-based network. He is creating a form through Microsoft Excel 2010. He wants to enable worksheet forms to satisfy the flexible design requirements and to customize their appearance, behavior, fonts, and other characteristics. Which of the following will Rick use to accomplish the task?

  A. Form control
  B. Accounting template
  C. Trust Center
  D. ActiveX control
  D. ActiveX control

  ---

  ActiveX controls are used on worksheet forms, with or without the use of VBA code, and on VBA UserForms. They are used when a user needs more flexible design requirements than those provided by Form controls. They have extensive properties that can be used to customize their appearance, behavior, fonts, and other characteristics. The user can control different events that occur when an ActiveX control is interacted with. He can also write macros that respond to events associated with the ActiveX controls. When a user interacts with the control, the VBA code runs to process any events that occur for that control. The ActiveX controls cannot be added to chart sheets from the user interface or to XLM macro sheets. It is not possible to assign a macro to run directly from the ActiveX control. Answer option A is incorrect. A form control is an original control that is compatible with old versions of Excel, beginning with Excel version 5. 0. It is designed for use on XLM macro sheets. It can be used when a user wants to simply interact with cell data without using VBA code and when he wants to add controls to chart sheets. By using form controls, the user can run macros. He can attach an existing macro to a control, or write or record a new macro. These controls cannot be added to UserForms, used to control events, or modified to run Web scripts on Web pages. Answer option B is incorrect. The accounting template is used for numbering months of a financial year to period numbering. It is used to compare month to month, actual v budget, quarter to quarter, year to year variances. It is the initial point for other reports that need the use of months. Answer option C is incorrect. Trust Center is where a user can find security and privacy settings for Microsoft Office 2010 programs.

  Answer option A is incorrect. No such option is provided in Excel 2010.

  

  Answer option B is incorrect. Although this will hide the rows containing the subtotals, the contents will remain there and can be made visible by using the Unhide row option. Moreover, the question specifically specifies to remove all subtotals from the sheet. Answer option D is incorrect. Although this step will accomplish the task, it will involve a lot of administrative burden of selecting each row and deleting it manually.

• Question 19:

  You work as an Office Assistant for Tech Perfect Inc. You are working in the spreadsheet of the company's high selling products. You input a formula for calculating the monthly sell of a particular product but your Excel cell shows a string of # symbols instead of returning a value as shown below:

  

  Which of the following are the reasons that are causing the above problem? Each correct answer represents a complete solution. Choose all that apply.

  A. You are inserting a new column, next to a column that is already formatted as text.
  B. The cell is not wide enough for displaying the calculated value.
  C. The lookup_value or the array you are searching resides in a cell containing unseen spaces at the start or end of that cell.
  D. Excel is trying to show the contents of the cell as a date or time stored as positive numeric values within Excel, but the cell contains a negative value.
  B. The cell is not wide enough for displaying the calculated value.
  D. Excel is trying to show the contents of the cell as a date or time stored as positive numeric values within Excel, but the cell contains a negative value.

  ---

  The Cell Shows ##### error occurs because the cell is not wide enough for displaying the calculated value. The other reason is that Excel is trying to show the contents of the cell as a date or time stored as positive numeric values within Excel, but the cell contains a negative value. Answer option C is incorrect. The Failure to Look Up Values in Excel error occurs when a user gets an unexpected error while trying to look up or match a lookup_value within an array and Excel is not able to recognize the matching value. If the lookup_value or the array the user is searching resides in a cell, the user can have unseen spaces at the start or end of that cell. This will create the situation where the contents of the two cells that the user is comparing look the same but extra spaces in one of the cells cause the cells to have slightly different content. The other reason is that the contents of the cells that are being compared may have different data types. Answer option A is incorrect. The Excel Won't Calculate My Function error occurs when a user types in a function and presses Enter, the cell shows the function as the user typed it, instead of returning the function's value. The reason that causes this problem is that the cells containing the formula are formatted as 'text' instead of the 'General' type. This happens when the user inserts a new column, next to a column that is already formatted as text due to which the new column inherits the formatting of the adjacent column
