If no one in the world ever made mistakes, we would all have a
lot less to learn. Unfortunaly, we aren't perfect and Microsoft
says as much. If you don't like it, take it up with them or boycott
this tutorial. Just kidding.
There are functions to undo
and redo changes made in excel in case you make a mistake
or simply don't like the most recent changes made to your document.
Reasons
to use Undo or Redo in Excel:
You just changed text in a file and
don't like the new text. UNDO
You change the formating of your spreadsheet and don't like the new formatting. UNDO
You click on something by accident in your sheet and you don't know what just happened and don't like
it. UNDO
You used undo but changed your mind. REDO
This lesson will show you how to use the undo and redo function
in Excel for good and not evil. Do not be tempted by the
dark side (like going around the office and undoing everyone's recent
changes)! Just in case, I will not tell you the shortcuts for them like
pressing Ctrl+Z to undo and Ctrl+Y to redo. Oops...

I know what your are thinking. That's it. It's that easy. Why didn't I know
about this two years ago? It would have saved me a lot of hassle. That question
I cannot answer, however, you should now be able to fix mistakes with ease
and you don't have to worry about making changes since most of them can
be undone. Please do not try to use undo redo in real life
situations because it doesn't work. Trust me.
