we'll explore how co pilot can assist with Excel table formatting.

00:00:09

As soon as I open a workbook containing data,

00:00:12

I can access the copilot pane by clicking the icon in the ribbon.

00:00:18

The first step is to format the data as a table,

00:00:21

which is essential for more efficient analysis.

00:00:24

Now I want to adjust the rows and columns to fit the data properly.

00:00:29

After a brief moment, Copilot suggests the action, and all I need to do is apply it.

00:00:35

I can also request changes to the font size, giving my table a more polished look.

00:00:40

Next, I want to focus on highlighting specific values in my data.

00:00:44

For example,

00:00:45

I can ask copilot to highlight any null values in the table.

00:00:50

It even suggests formatting the top 10 values in the September column.

00:00:55

If the result isn't what I expected, I can easily undo the action and try again.

00:01:00

However, if I ask copilot to apply the same action across the entire table,

00:01:05

it processes each column individually.

00:01:08

This shows that while copilot can handle formatting tasks,

00:01:11

there are some limitations when it comes to consistency across tables.

00:01:15

Other formatting options,

00:01:16

such as applying data bars are also available

00:01:20

and can be useful for quick visual insights,

00:01:22

something I rely on regularly

00:01:25

in summary copilot is capable of managing certain formatting tasks,

00:01:29

but as of now it doesn't provide a dramatic improvement over manual formatting.
