Topic Wiki

Rule 1: Did you try A.I? Right before you click post, give it a quick run. Most excel questions can be answered very quickly, thoroughly, and clearly via chatgpt. Wrong answer, or having trouble with the correct wording of the prompt? Post for help

With chatgpt this thread should be obsolete. Ask your questions and it works wonders. Sometimes it needs minor tweaking, but that's just like trying any formula.

Its crazy I agree with you so much. It used to be hard to google this type of thing because you had to phrase it correctly and know the right words and stuff, but now you can literally copy paste 99% of the questions here to [insert your fav a.i. assistant here] and you can get an instant, well written, thorough response. There should be a wiki with a rule about this....

How do I make words in excel not display over to next cell to the right that is blank?
That was my question and it gave me bad answers. I don't want to decrease the font size or make 2 rows in the cell etc.
