The Function button inserts an equals (=) sign into the selected cell
and the Input Line, thereby setting the cell ready to accept a formula.
When you enter new data into a cell, the Sum and Equals buttons
change to Cancel and Accept buttons .
The contents of the current cell (data, formula, or function) are
displayed in the Input line, which forms the remainder of the Formula
Bar. You can either edit the cell contents of the current cell here, or
you can do that in the current cell. To edit inside the Input line area,
click in the area, then type your changes. To edit within the current
cell, just double-click the cell.
Individual cells
The main section of the screen displays the individual cells in the form
of a grid, with each cell being at the intersection of a column and a
row.
At the top of the columns and at the left-hand end of the rows are a
series of gray boxes containing letters and numbers. These are the
column and row headers. The columns start at A and go on to the right,
and the rows start at 1 and go down.
These column and row headers form the cell references that appear in
the Sheet Area box on the Formula Bar (Figure 98). You can turn these
headers off by selecting View > Column & Row Headers.
Sheet tabs
At the bottom of the grid of cells are the sheet tabs, which enable
access to each individual sheet. The visible (active) sheet has a white
tab.
Clicking on another sheet tab displays that sheet and its tab turns
white. You can also select multiple sheet tabs at once by holding down
the Control key while you click the names.
Status bar
At the very bottom of the Calc window is the status bar, which provides
information about the spreadsheet and convenient ways to quickly
change some of its features. Most of the fields are similar to those in
other components of OOo; see Chapter 1 (Introducing OpenOffice.org)
in this book and Chapter 1 (Introducing Calc) in the Calc Guide.
