FEATURES

Features of Excel for Windows

Sparklines and Flash Fill

Excel 2010 added sparklines in cells, while Excel 2013 added pattern-based filling.

Import in Excel 2016 and 2019

On Windows, Power Query is built into the application; older releases required an add-in.

Excel 2021 formulas

XLOOKUP, LET and dynamic arrays are included in this release.

Excel 2024 extensions

LAMBDA, new array operations and dynamic charts complement this release.

Continuously updated Microsoft 365

Python, Office Scripts, and Copilot require checking the subscription, platform, and access conditions.

Automation with VBA

Record repetitive actions and rerun them when preparing the next report. The VBA editor lets you adapt the recorded macro to your own workflow.

PivotTables

Summarize a large list by categories, dates or departments. Rearranging fields gives a different view of the same data without changing the source table.

Data validation

Set allowed numbers, dates, and dropdown options. Input messages and error alerts help people fill in a shared spreadsheet consistently.

Add-ins and architecture

Check your work modules' architecture before switching between 32- and 64-bit Office.
