[h=3]Aligning Text

You’ve probably noticed by now that Excel, like Word, left-aligns text (labels) by default.

However, Excel, by default, right-aligns numbers (values). This makes data easier to

read. Below, see examples of text (labels) aligned right, left, and centered.

Use the buttons of the Formatting toolbar to align text and numbers:

Basic text alignment can be reviewed in Office 2000 and Word 2000 lessons.

[h=3]Another Alignment Option: Merge and Center

In Excel, you have another alignment option available to you: merge and center.

When you merge a cell, you are selecting more than one cell and creating one

large cell. You can center the contents of a cell across the new merged cell

Merge and center is helpful when creating worksheet titles.





​

[h=2]Aligning Text

[h=5]To Create a Title using Merge and Center:
Enter the title of the worksheet in the top left cell.

Select the first row of the worksheet (including the top left cell containing

the title of the worksheet). How many cells you select depends on how wide your label is


Click the Merge and Center button.

Excel only centers the text in the top left cell of the selection, so if the

title is in more than one row, merge and center each title row separately..

[h=3]The Format Cells Dialog Box - Understanding the Alignment Tab
In the Alignment tab’s Text Alignment section, there are Horizontal and Vertical alignment options, as shown below:

The Horizontal section features a drop down box with left, center, and right alignment options.


It also features:


[h=5]General
The default alignment.

[h=5]Fill
"Fills" the cell with the current contents by repeating the contents for the width of the cell.

[h=5]Justify
Wraps the text in the cell and adjusts the spacing within each line so that all lines are as wide as the cell.

[h=5]Center Across Selection
Contents of the cell furthest to the left are centered across the selection

of cells. Similar to merge and center, except the cells are not merged

The Vertical section’s default is bottom. Top and Center are used to position the data close to the top or center of the cell.
