The Cell Shows ##### error occurs because the cell is not wide enough for displaying the calculated value. The other reason is that Excel is trying to show the contents of the cell as a date or time stored as positive numeric values within Excel, but the cell contains a negative value. Answer option C is incorrect. The Failure to Look Up Values in Excel error occurs when a user gets an unexpected error while trying to look up or match a lookup_value within an array and Excel is not able to recognize the matching value. If the lookup_value or the array the user is searching resides in a cell, the user can have unseen spaces at the start or end of that cell. This will create the situation where the contents of the two cells that the user is comparing look the same but extra spaces in one of the cells cause the cells to have slightly different content. The other reason is that the contents of the cells that are being compared may have different data types. Answer option A is incorrect. The Excel Won't Calculate My Function error occurs when a user types in a function and presses Enter, the cell shows the function as the user typed it, instead of returning the function's value. The reason that causes this problem is that the cells containing the formula are formatted as 'text' instead of the 'General' type. This happens when the user inserts a new column, next to a column that is already formatted as text due to which the new column inherits the formatting of the adjacent column

A sparkline is defined as a tiny chart in the background of a cell. Unlike charts on an Excel Worksheet, sparklines are not objects. It is used because data presented in a row or column is useful, but patterns can be hard to spot at a glance. It is used to display a trend based on adjacent data in a clear and compact graphical representation by taking up a small amount of space. The benefit of using the sparklines is that these can be printed when a user prints a worksheet that contains them. This feature is not available in charts. Answer option D is incorrect. The Microsoft Office Backstage view is used to replace the traditional file menu with a new approach that uses In and Out features for efficiency. The improved Ribbon enables users to access their preferred commands rapidly and create custom tabs to personalize the way they work. Answer option A is incorrect. A trendline is defined in Excel 2013. It is a data visualization tool to display the trend of a particular data range. It is used to show the slope of data points in a chart. There are various types of trendlines, such as linear trendlines, exponential trendlines, and linear forecast trendlines. Answer option B is incorrect. Excel provides a column chart facility to display data that is arranged in columns or rows on a worksheet. Line charts are used to display continuous data over time, set against a common scale. In a line chart, category data is distributed along the horizontal axis, and all value data is distributed along the vertical axis. Line charts are ideal for showing trends in data at equal intervals.

A line chart should be used where category labels are text, and are representing evenly spaced Values such as months, quarters, or years.

Correct Answer: C

A scenario is defined as a type of what-if analysis tools. It is a set of values saved by Excel and can be substituted automatically in cells on a worksheet. A user can create and save different groups of values on a worksheet and then switch to any of these new scenarios to view different results. Scenario reports are not automatically recalculated. If the user changes the values of a scenario, those changes will not be displayed in an existing summary report and he must create a new summary report to show the reflection of the changed report. Answer option A is incorrect. Goal Seek is defined as a type of what-if analysis tools. It is used if a user knows the result that he wants from a formula, but he is not sure what input value the formula needs to get that result. It works with only one variable input value. Answer option D is incorrect. The Solver add-in is used if a user knows the result that he wants from a formula, but he is not sure what input value the formula needs to get that result. It is used for more than one input value. It works with a group of cells related to the formula in the objective cell. Answer option B is incorrect. A data table is used to see all the outcomes in one place. It is defined as a type of what-if analysis tools. It is used if a user has a formula that uses one or two variables or multiple formulas that all use one common variable. It is used to examine a range of possibilities at a glance and since the user focuses on only one or two variables, results are easy to read and share in tabular form. If automatic recalculation is enabled, it is possible to recalculate the data in data tables immediately and as a result, the user always gets fresh data.

Correct Answer: D

Slicers are defined as easy-to-use filtering components containing a set of buttons that enable users to quickly filter data in a PivotTable report, without opening drop-down lists to find the items to filter.

When a user uses a regular PivotTable report filter to filter on multiple items, the filter indicates only that multiple items are filtered and the user has to open a drop-down list to find the filtering details. However, a slicer clearly labels the filter

that is applied and provides details so that the data displayed in the filtered PivotTable report can be easily understood.

Answer option B is incorrect. ActiveX controls are used on worksheet forms, with or without the use of VBA code, and on VBA UserForms.

They are used when a user needs more flexible design requirements than those provided by Form controls. They have extensive properties that can be used to customize their appearance, behavior, fonts, and other characteristics. The user

can control different events that occur when an ActiveX control is interacted with. He can also write macros that respond to events associated with the ActiveX controls. When a user interacts with the control, the VBA code runs to process any

events that occur for that control. The ActiveX controls cannot be added to chart sheets from the user interface or to XLM macro sheets. It is not possible to assign a macro to run directly from the ActiveX control. Answer option C is incorrect.

A form control is an original control that is compatible with old versions of Excel, beginning with Excel version 5. 0. It is designed for use on XLM macro sheets. It can be used when a user wants to simply interact with cell data without using

VBA code and when he wants to add controls to chart sheets. By using form controls, the user can run macros. He can attach an existing macro to a control, or write or record a new macro. These controls cannot be added to UserForms,

used to control events, or modified to run Web scripts on Web pages.

Answer option A is incorrect. The accounting template is used for numbering months of a financial year to period numbering. It is used to compare month to month, actual v budget, quarter to quarter, year to year variances. It is the initial point

for other reports that need the use of months.

Correct Answer: ABDE

Correct Answer: AB

The various issues with exporting XML data are as follows:

1.

MAP CAN BE EXPORTED BUT SOME REQUIRED ELEMENTS ARE NOT MAPPED:

This error occurs under the following situations:

The XML map associated with this XML table contains one or more required elements that are not mapped to the XML table. The element is a recursive structure. The XML table contains a variety of mixed content.

2.

EXCEL CANNOT SAVE THE WORKBOOK BECAUSE IT DOES NOT CONTAIN ANY XML MAPPINGS: Excel cannot save the user's workbook in the XML Data file unless one or more mapped ranges are created.

3.

XML MAPS IN MY WORKBOOK ARE NOT EXPORTABLE: An XML mapping cannot be exported if the relationship of the mapped element with other elements is not preserved due to the following reasons:

The mapped element's schema definition is contained within a sequence with the following attributes:

The maxoccurs attribute is not equal to 1.

The sequence has more than one direct child element defined or has an extra compositor as a direct child.

Nonrepeating sibling elements with the same repeating parent element are mapped to dissimilar XML tables.

Various repeating elements are mapped to the same XML table and the recurrence is not defined by an ancestor element.

Child elements from various parents are mapped to the same XML table. XML schema constructs a list of lists, denormalized data, or a choice construct.
