Answer 2

Select the cells you want to merge. There is a tool on the formatting toolbar that is called merge and center that you can then click. It looks like an a with arrows pointing out of it. You can also go to the format menu, pick cells, then alignment and then tick merge cells.

Answer 3

There are two ways. In both cases, first select the cells you want to merge, which must be adjacent cells, in other words all together. Then go to the Format menu, pick Cells, pick Alignment, and then you will see a tick box beside Merge Cells. Click on that and the selected cells will be merged.

The simpler way of doing it is to use the formatting toolbar. In the middle of it you will see an icon with an a in a white box, with arrows either side of it. It is to the right of the three icons for left, center and right alignment. With the cells you want to merge selected, just c click on it and the cells will be merged.

That can depend on what you mean by merged. Data can be taken from one and pasted into blank sheets in the other. You could then do calculations to add things together. You could also use the consolidate procedures. Copying files into each other can be difficult. Look at one process in the related question below.

Answer 6

There are different ways of interpreting that. You could mean taking worksheets from one workbook and putting them into another. With the relevant workbooks open, you can right click on a sheet tab and copy or move it to another workbook. If you mean to combine figures from one worksheet with another, there are various ways of doing it. You can use a kind of totals sheet and add values from other worksheets and put the total into that one. You need to reference the worksheets, which you do by having the sheet name, followed by an exclamation mark and the cell reference. So you could have something like this on Sheet3:

=Sheet1!B2 + Sheet2!B2

Another way is to use the Consolidation facility. There are various ways of doing it, so it really depends on what you want to do. That can combine the data with no formulas.
