Excel 2010 exercise - Basic tables (image 1)

Thankfully for your trainer, the pronunciation is included

You should find that the spreadsheet has 3 identical sheets, named Part 1, Part 2 & Part 3. On consecutive sheets, convert the data to a table

Now apply filtering as follows:

  • On Part 1, filter the Table to show dinosaurs that existed in the Cretaceous period, were not carnivores, were less then 2 metres in height and weighed between 10 and 100 Kg.
  • On Part 2, filter the Table to show the Jurassic beasts. Then filter further to find the Top 50% based upon Length.
  • Lastly, on Part 3, find the Bird-hipped dinosaurs that have the word "tooth" somewhere in the Meaning of Name field.

When you have finished, save your file as Grrrrrrr
