Exp19 Excel Ch11 ML1 Internships

 

Project Description:

As the Internship Director for a regional university, you created a  list of students who are currently in this semester’s internship  program. You have some final touches to complete the worksheet,  particularly in formatting text. In addition, you want to create an  advanced filter to copy a list of senior accounting students. Finally,  you want to insert summary statistics and create an input area to look  up a student by ID to display his or her name and major.

You want to extract the last four digits of the student’s ID.
 

  #In cell B2 on the Students sheet, extract the last four digits of  the first student’s ID using the RIGHT function. Copy the function from  cell B2 to the range B3:B42.
   Hint: Formula is =RIGHT(Student ID, 4)

#After extracting the last four digits of the ID, you want to align the data.
 

  #Apply center horizontal alignment to the range B2:B42.
   Hint: The Home tab contains alignment options.

#The first and last names are combined in column C. You want to separate the names into two columns.
 

  Convert the text in the range C2:C42 into two columns using a space as the delimiter.
   Hint: Text to Columns is located on the Data tab.

#You want to convert the text in column F to upper and lowercase letters.
 

  #Use a text function in cell G2 to convert the text in cell F2 into  upper and lowercase letters. Copy the function to the range G3:G42.
   Hint: Formula is =PROPER(Major)

#Now that you have converted text from uppercase to upper and  lowercase, you will hide the column containing the majors in all capital  letters.
 

  Hide column F.
 

  Hint: The Home tab contains an option to hide a column.

You want to create a criteria range for the dataset.
 

  #Create a criteria range by copying the range A1:I1 and pasting it in cell   A44. Create conditions
   for   Senior Accounting   majors on row 45 and an OR condition for Junior Accounting majors in the respective cells   on row 46

You are ready to perform the advanced filter.
 

  #Create an output range by copying the range A44:I44 to cell A48.  Perform the   advanced filter by copying data to the output range. Use  the appropriate   ranges for list range, criteria range, and output  range
   Hint: The Data tab contains the option to perform an advanced filter.

On the Info worksheet, you want   to insert a database function based on conditions.
 

  #Display the Info worksheet and insert the DSUM function in cell B2  to   calculate the total tuition for junior and senior accounting  students. Use   the range A1:I42 for the database, Tuition for the field, and the criteria range.
 

You want to insert database   functions to perform calculations.
 

  In cell B3, insert the DAVERAGE function to calculate the average GPA for junior and senior   accounting students on the Students worksheet. Use mixed references in the   ranges.

You want to identify the highest   GPAs for junior and senior accounting majors.
 

  In cell B4, insert the DMAX function to identify the highest GPA for junior and senior   accounting students on the Students worksheet. Use mixed references in the   ranges.
 

In cell B5, insert the DMIN function   to identify the lowest GPA for junior and senior accounting students on the Students   worksheet. Use mixed references in the ranges.
 

In cell B6, insert the DCOUNT   function to count the number of junior and senior accounting
   students on the Students worksheet. Use mixed references in the ranges.
 

In cell B9, insert the DGET   function to retrieve the last name of  the student who has the ID listed in   cell A9. Use the column number  representing the Last Name column for the   field argument and use the  criteria range A8:A9. Edit the function to make the column letters  absolute. Copy the DGET function from cell B9 to cell C9.   Edit the  field number to represent the GPA column.
 

You want to format the results of the database functions.
 

  Format the range B3:B6 with Comma Style. Decrease the number of decimal   places to zero
   for cell B6.

You want to identify the location of a particular ID.
 

  Insert the MATCH function in cell B13 to identify the position of the ID   stored in cell B12. Use
   the range A2:A42 in the Student’s worksheet as the lookup_array argument and   look for exact
   matches only.
 

Insert the INDEX function in cell B14 with Students!A$2:I$42 as the  array, B$13 that contains the MATCH function as the row number, and 4 as the column number. Copy the function from cell   B14 to cell B15. Edit the function to change the column number to 7.

Change the ID in cell B12 to 11282378. The results of the MATCH and   INDEX functions
   should change.

You want to insert a function to display other functions as text.
 

  Insert the FORMULATEXT function in cell D2 to display the formula that is   stored in cell B2.
   Copy the function to the range D3:D6 and to the range D13:D15. In cell D8,   insert the
   FORMULATEXT function to display the function that is stored in cell B9, and   in cell D9, insert
   the FORMULATEXT function to display the function that is stored in cell C9.

Increase the width of column D   to 50.

Create a footer with your name on the left side, the sheet name code  in the center, and the file name code on the right side on all sheets.
