AutoFit the Columns

What Do You See? Column E may display #####. Why are there pound signs? That’s Excel’s way of saying that the column is too narrow.

 

The Computer Mama sez that means you have too much money.

 

Try it: Format the Column Width

Select Column E.

Go to Home->Cells_> Format.

Select AutoFit Column Width.

 

Here's another way:

Place your cursor between the E and F Column header—right on the line. Your cursor will change from a white plus sign to a black double-headed arrow. Double click and Column E will be resized as wide as it needs to be.


Home ->Cells ->Format ->AutoFit Column Width
