| Locked & Unlocked Cell Lens | | When you open a protected worksheet which you constructed in the past, can you remember which range is locked and which range is unlocked? What will happen if you send customers a document which includes some cells that have been locked incorrectly? |
| Design Protected Worksheets Efficiently! |
The Locked & Unlocked Cell Lens changes the background color of cells according to their lock/unlock state: locked cells to gray, and unlocked cells are shown in blue. Assist also offers a Quick Lock button to lock the selected range at once and a Quick Unlock button to unlock immediately. Now you can clearly see which cells are locked and which cells are unlocked. Just cancel this Cell Lens and the original background color will be restored.
| | Cell Lens of Data Type | | When you are using a summary formula or other math formulas in Microsoft® Excel®, do you sometimes find that the summary value is incorrect and some cells are not included in the summary? If the format is incorrect, Excel considers the data of these cells as text rather than number. The text is always treated as zero when totaling, so the value of the summary is incorrect. |
| | Seek Invalid Data Type Quickly! | Excel can recognize the data type of cells and ranges, but users cannot. Addintools Assist offers the function Data Type Cell Lens. It renders and changes the background color of cells according to their data type: Text changed to green, Number to blue, Date and Time to yellow, empty cells changed to "No Filled Color". Cells that include text and are therefore totaled incorrectly will be visible at once. You can use the Data Type Conversion to convert the data of those cells to number type. You will then get the correct value in your summary. Just cancel the Data Type Cell Lens, and the background color of all cells will be restored to their original state. | |
