This video explains how to align data within a cell, and also how to align a group of cells at the same time.
(lively, bouncy music)…- [Narrator] You can orient a single cell…or you can click and drag to select multiple cells…to change their alignment.…With the cells selected, on the Home ribbon tab…inside the Alignment area, you can left align the cells,…right align the cells, or center them.…In addition to centering them on the cell horizontally,…you can also vertically align the cell…by choosing a center alignment, a top alignment,…or the default bottom alignment.…
I'm going to center everything.…Now, whenever you resize a cell,…your alignment will remain as it is.…
