OpenOffice: Create spreadsheet document - how it works

You can also use the free OpenOffice software to create and edit spreadsheets. You can then largely use all the spreadsheet functions that you know from the paid Office programs. In this practical tip you can read how to do this in OpenOffice.

Spreadsheet documents in OpenOffice - simply created

Apache OpenOffice has a modular structure. Spreadsheets, often called spreadsheets, can be created with the OpenOffice Writer or OpenOffice Calc modules:

1. First create a new spreadsheet document in OpenOffice Writer. To do this, click on the "File" menu item and then select "New"> "Spreadsheet".
2. If you open OpenOffice Calc, an empty spreadsheet document is automatically opened.
3. Now define the contents of your spreadsheet document. Name columns and rows and insert your data. OpenOffice contains various functions for this, with which you can edit, analyze and manage your data.
4. If you work with large amounts of data, you should use filters in OpenOffice.

This practical tip relates to OpenOffice version 4.0.0. By the way, you can create a diagram for your new tables in OpenOffice and thus illustrate your data.
