Create new workbook The first step is to create a new Workbook. A Workbook consisting of one or several worksheets is the place you work on in Mesa. A Worksheet is a collection of cells organized in rows and columns. Each cell can be individually addressed with its row and column address. Rows are numbered 1,2,3 and so on and columns are labeled A,B,C and so on. When you first create a Workbook, it will have 20 columns and 20 rows. It will automatically expand as you need more space. You can also make a Workbook larger or smaller by changing the sheet size in the Sheet Inspector. To create a new Workbook,
select the Workbook->New or key in Apple + Many Mesa commands have Apple-Key equivalents. These commands can be issued by clicking on the desired menu item or by pressing the Apple key along with another key on the keyboard. Apple-Key equivalents are useful shortcuts once you become familiar with an application. The Apple-Key equivalent will be listed after each command so that they will become familiar. Once you have created a new, blank Workbook, you can save it on your computer's disk. Saving a Workbook transfers the information contained in the Workbook from the computer's internal memory to a hard disk or file server. Once the information is on permanent storage, it will remain until it is changed or erased. It is a good idea to save your work from time to time in case there is an unexpected problem with your computer. If you have saved the file, even if the information in the computer's memory is lost, you will still have the information on disk. To save a Workbook,
select the Workbook -> Save As or key in Apple S
You can also use the Save icon on the Workbook Toolbar to save your Workbook. See Also: |
