Question

Which of the following is FALSE with reference to cell editing in MS-Excel?

A.

Select the cell, click on the formula bar and edit the content

B.

Edit the cell by double-clicking the cell where the content is located

C.

Select the cell and press the F2 function key on the keyboard to edit the content of the cell

D.

Select the cell and press the F5 function key on the keyboard to edit the content of the cell

Correct option is D

In MS Excel, F5 is used for the Go To command, which allows you to quickly navigate to a specific cell or range of cells. It is not used for editing the content of a cell. The correct function for editing a cell's content is F2, not F5.
Here’s the breakdown of the other options:
· Select the cell, click on the formula bar and edit the content: This is true. You can edit the content of a selected cell by clicking on the formula bar, where the current cell’s content is displayed.
· Edit the cell by double-clicking the cell where the content is located: This is true. Double-clicking on a cell allows you to edit its content directly.
· Select the cell and press the F2 function key on the keyboard to edit the content of the cell: This is true. F2 puts the selected cell in edit mode, allowing you to change its content.
Important Key Points:
1. F5 (Go To): Used for navigating to a specific cell or range of cells.
2. F2 (Edit): The F2 key is used to edit the content of the currently selected cell.
3. Formula Bar: The formula bar also allows direct editing of cell contents, especially when the cell is selected.
Knowledge Booster:
· Editing Methods: You can edit a cell’s content in multiple ways: by using the formula bar, double-clicking the cell, or using the F2 key. F5 does not allow for editing but is essential for navigating.
