How to Split Documents in Microsoft Excel Easily
When you use Excel to process data, sometimes there are things that make you less careful so that processing the data takes longer and is inefficient.
Therefore, to overcome this, Babang suggests doing a split so that it is easy when managing data. The split feature is actually already available in Microsoft Excel, but if you don’t know how to use it, you can see the tutorial below
Split Feature Function in Excel
Before we get to the topic of discussion, what is split? split is a feature that allows you to split an Excel worksheet into 4 panels.
So each of these panels will be connected to each other. For example, if you write a word in the first panel, it will also appear in all parts of it.
Now this split also has many roles, including:
- Allows you to view data from 4 different areas
- Can make it easier for you when analyzing a fairly large amount of data
- Reduce errors and mistakes when creating and updating data
- Speed up work
How to Set Split in Excel
It’s very easy, you can try it yourself. Here’s a tutorial on how to set up splits in Excel:
Split Area 4 Panels Proportionately
The first is how to make a split into 4 parts that are the same size or proportional.
The steps are like this:
- The first step, please open Microsoft Excel first.
- Next, to be able to set a proportional split area, you click cell A1.
- After that select the View tab > hover over the Window group > select Split.
- So now the worksheet in your Microsoft Excel is divided into 4 proportional panels.
Customizing Splits
For this method, we can customize the split view ourselves, with a note that the size is not entirely the same.
The steps:
- First, make sure you have Microsoft Excel open on the computer you are using.
- After that block or highlight the cell that you want to use as a distance barrier for each panel when using split.
- Next select the View tab > then select the split in the Window group.
- So now your worksheet in Excel will be a 4-part panel that has been arranged by yourself.
How to Use Split Area
If you have successfully set up splits in the worksheet, now you should also know how to use them.
Actually, how to use this split is a bit similar when using freeze. The difference is only the appearance, because this split is divided into 4 panels, otherwise it freezes only 1.
The steps are as follows:
- Make sure your worksheet has been split and divided into 4 panels.
- After that, try typing a word in one of the panels. For example, type the word “BABANG” in cell A1 on the top left panel.
- Next on another panel, please adjust the scroll until you find cell A1.
- Then the entire panel of cell A1 will show the same word.
Removing the Split Feature
If you no longer want to use the split feature, it can be removed.
The trick is to just go to the View tab > then click the Split feature again that you have activated.
Thus, this split feature is no longer visible in your Excel worksheet.
Conclusion
So that’s the explanation of how to create splits in Microsoft Excel. Easy enough right? You only need to split the worksheet or delete it if you don’t need it anymore.
