00:00 | Welcome to the Spoken tutorial on Linking in Calc in LibreOffice Calc. |
00:06 | In this tutorial, we will learn the following: |
00:10 | * How to reference other sheets in Calc. |
00:14 | * How to use hyperlinks in Calc. |
00:18 | Here, we are using GNU/Linux as our operating system and LibreOffice Suite version 3.3.4. |
00:28 | LibreOffice Calc allows you to reference: |
00:31 | * A cell from another sheet to a cell in the current sheet. |
00:36 | * A cell from another spreadsheet, if you have saved both the spreadsheets. |
00:42 | Let’s open “Personal-Finance-Tracker.ods”. |
00:47 | The sheet 1 of our file contains the spreadsheet for “Personal Finance Tracker”. |
00:53 | I have added some amounts in the columns “Spent” and “Received”. |
01:03 | Now, let us find the sum total of the components under “Cost” and
“Spent” respectively. |
01:10 | Click on the cell referenced as C9 and enter the formula is equal to SUM and within braces C3 colon C7. |
01:22 | Then press the Enter key. |
01:26 | Click on the cell referenced as D9 and using the same formula find the total. |
01:34 | Now, we will display the total balance under “Cost” and “Spent” on a different sheet using cell referencing. |
01:44 | Let’s click on the “Sheet 2” tab. |
01:47 | This opens the new sheet. |
01:50 | Now, click on the cell referenced as A1 and type the heading “COMPONENT” inside it. |
01:58 | Click on the cell referenced as B1 and type the heading “BALANCE” inside it. |
02:06 | Now, let’s enter the names of the components under the heading. |
02:10 | Click on the cell referenced as A3 and type “COST”. Press Enter. |
02:18 | Below “COST”, let’s enter the next component as “SPENT” in the cell referenced A4. |
02:26 | Now, click on the empty cell B3. |
02:29 | The cells B3 and B4 will have the total balance under the heading “COST” and “SPENT” |
02:36 | which we calculated in “Sheet 1”. |
02:40 | This will be done by referencing. |
02:43 | To make the cell reference in cell B3, click on the “equal to” sign next to the Input line. |
02:52 | Now, on the Sheet tab, click on “Sheet 1”. |
02:58 | In this sheet, we will click on the cell C9 which contains the total under the column “Cost”. |
03:06 | Notice that in the Input line, the statement “Sheet 1 dot C9” is displayed. |
03:13 | Now click on the check-mark next to the Input line. |
03:18 | Notice that the 'grand total' of the data under “Cost” in the “Sheet 1” tab is automatically entered into the cell referenced as B3 in the “Sheet 2 “ tab. |
03:33 | Similarly, we can enter the grand totals of other components through referencing. |
03:39 | Referencing can be very useful to summarize data if there are many sheets with a lot of data content. |
03:48 | Now, let’s learn how to create Hyperlinks in Calc sheets. |
03:53 | You can use Hyperlinks to jump:
|
04:05 | In “Personal-Finance-Tracker.ods”,
the personal finance tracker is in “Sheet 1” and the rest of the content is in “Sheet 2”. |
04:15 | Let’s say we want to jump from Sheet 1 to Sheet 2. |
04:20 | First, click on the “Sheet 1” tab. |
04:24 | Here, let’s click on the cell referenced as B14 and enter ”Sheet 2”. |
04:31 | You see that the name “Sheet 2” is displayed on the “Input line”. |
04:37 | Now, select the text “Sheet 2” in the Input Line. |
04:42 | After selecting the text, click on the “Hyperlink” icon in the toolbar. |
04:50 | The Hyperlink dialog-box appears. |
04:53 | On the left side, let’s select the “Document” option. |
04:57 | Click on the “Target in document” icon in the dialog-box. |
05:02 | A new “Target in document” dialog box appears. |
05:06 | Now, click on the plus sign next to the Sheet option. |
05:12 | In the dialog-box which appears, click on the “Sheet 2” option. |
05:17 | Now, click on the “Apply” button and then click on the “Close” button. |
05:23 | Now, from the Hyperlink dialog-box, click on “Apply” and then click on “Close”. |
05:30 | The “Sheet 1” tab appears in front with the text “Sheet 2” highlighted in the cell. |
05:38 | Now, when we click on the text “Sheet 2”, it directly takes us to the sheet where we had entered the balance for Cost. |
05:49 | We have created a hyperlink! |
05:53 | To remove the hyperlink, first select the hyperlinked text “Sheet 2”. |
05:59 | Now right click and from the context menu, click on the “Default Formatting” option. |
06:07 | The text is no longer hyperlinked. |
06:11 | It is just like any normal text in the document. |
06:15 | Let us undo the changes. |
06:18 | This brings us to the end of the Spoken Tutorial on LibreOffice Calc. |
06:23 | To summarize, we learned how to:
|
06:29 | * Use hyperlinks in Calc. |
