14. Microsoft Excel 2007 Vocabulary
 Workbook : a file created in Excel 2007. A workbook can contain one or more worksheets and
related items. An Excel 2007 workbook contains three worksheets.
 Worksheets : a single spreadsheet in a workbook. You can add or delete worksheets in a
workbook as required.
 Rows: the horizontal divisions in a worksheet are called rows. Each row is identified by a
number. For example, the first row in a worksheet is 1.
 Columns: the vertical divisions in a worksheet. Each column is identified by a letter. For
example, the first column in a worksheet is A.
 Cell: formed by the intersection of a row and a column. The highlighted rectangular border
formed around an active cell is called a cell pointer. An active cell is the cell in which you are
working currently. There can be only one active cell at a time. You can use a cell to store and
display different types of data such as text, numbers, or formulas.
 Cell Address: made of the column letter and row number of the cell. For example, the cell
formed by the first column and first row has the cell address A1. The cell address indicates the
exact location of a cell in a worksheet.
 Status bar: this bar provides information about the present status of work in the worksheet. For
example, if you are not working on the worksheet, the status bar displays the message
“Ready.” When you click in a blank cell to enter data, the status bar displays the message
“Enter.”
