Excel 2016 – 2.11.6 – Multiple Delimiters
Can we use multiple delimiters in the CONCAT() or TEXTJOIN() Functions? Yes we can and this video shows you how.
Excel 2016 – 2.11.5 – TEXTJOIN Over CONCAT
So we can see there are two Functions replacing CONCATENATE(). Now let’s take a look and see the differences between them.
Excel 2016 – 2.11.4 – The TEXTJOIN Function
Another new Function! This is also replacing the CONCATENATE() Function!
Excel 2016 – 2.11.3 – The CONCAT Function
CONCAT() is a new function and is replacing CONCATENATE(). However, it’s not the only one…
Excel 2016 – 2.11.2 – The CONCATENATE Function
You’ve seen how to concatenate manually, now you’ll see how to do it using the CONCATENATE Function. IMPORTANT INFO: This Function is being deprecated – but it’s important to know, for backward compatibility.
Excel 2016 – 2.11.1 – Manual Concatenation
If you need to ‘join’ things together such as combining First Name and Surname into the same cell, then you need to concatenate. This is how you do it manually.
Excel 2016 – 2.10.20 – The TIMEVALUE Function
Do you have Dates that are actually Text? Well, if you do, then it’s worth using the TIMEVALUE Function, to convert them so that they become calculable.
Excel 2016 – 2.10.19 – Time Exceeds 24 Hours
In topic 5 ‘Calculate Date and Time’ we saw that once you cross over 24 Hours, you have to use a special format. Well, it’s exactly the same when Time crosses over 24 Hours.
Excel 2016 – 2.10.18 – Calculate Minutes With Currency
We’ll take it a step further and show Excel that we’re calculating with Minutes rather than Hours.
Excel 2016 – 2.10.17 – Calculate Time With Currency
If you’ve ever tried it, you know you can get strange results! You just need to let Excel know that it is Time that it is calculating.
Excel 2016 – 2.10.15 – Timesheet Removing Break Times
Now we know how to subtract time, but what if we want to subtract the lunch time from a Timesheet? This video shows you one way to achieve this.

We’re going to look at this calculation working, but we’re also going to look at how it can go wrong, and why!
Excel 2016 – 2.10.13 – Time Formatting
Just like Dates, Times can also be formatted to show them the way you wish to see them.
Excel 2016 – 2.10.12 – DATEVALUE Function
Sometimes, when you download data from systems, like SAP, Dates actually come in as Text – which means they are non-calculable. However, if Excel recognises their structure, then it can convert them into Dates that can be calculated, using the DATEVALUE function.
Excel 2016 – 2.10.11 – WORKDAY Function
You know the date that a project is going to start. You know how many days you have to complete it. What you don’t know is the date that it’s going to end, because you need to exclude Saturdays and Sundays – and Holidays. Well, that’s what this function does.
Excel 2016 – 2.10.10 – NETWORKDAYS Function
Do you need to know the number of working days between two dates – i.e. excluding Saturdays and Sundays? Do you also need to exclude holidays? Look no further, this is the function for you!
Excel 2016 – 2.10.9 – WEEKDAY Function
Do you need to be able to show what day of the week it is, on your spreadsheet? The WEEKDAY function and some custom codes can do the job for you.
Excel 2016 – 2.10.8 – DATEDIF Function
You won’t find the DATEDIF function in the Help menu for Excel because it is no longer supported. Yet we can still use it, once we know how.
Excel 2016 – 2.10.7 – EOMONTH Function
Do you have a project that is due in 2 months time, but it’s due at the end of the month? If so, the End of Month is the one that will work out that date for you!
Excel 2016 – 2.10.6 – EDATE Function
If you need to know what the date will be a month from now, or 3 months from now – then this is the function that will give you that.
Excel 2016 – 2.10.5 – Calculate Date and Time
If you’ve ever tried to calculate with Dates and Times that run over the 24 hour period, then you’ll know that you get some very strange results! This video shows you the custom code that you need to use, to overcome this issue.
