  A spreadsheet program is an application which is used to display data and to perform calculations on it. The word ’spreadsheet’ is also used to refer to the product created by this type of application--- for example a table of information in words and figures, either on the screen, as a file, or as a printout.
  In Excel, one of the most popular spreadsheet programs, the files used are called workbooks. These consist of worksheets, or ‘sheets’, which are the electronic equivalent of large sheet of paper. The data is displayed in rows and columns, in a large table on the screen. The columns are usually labelled with letters of the alphabet (though sometimes with a number) at the top of the worksheet, and the rows are labelled with numbers on the left. The grey areas at the top of columns are called ‘column headings’, and the corresponding areas to the left of the rows are called “row headings”. Cells are the small boxes formed where rows and columns intersect. Every cell has an ‘address’ which contains the labels of the row and column which intersect to form it.

You've seen how simple it is to send an email message, even simpler than sending a letter and going through postal mail. Email is fast, immediate and free. Perhaps you've noticed – while composing a message – Bcc and Cc buttons and wondered about them. To send an email message you need to type an email address next to To.

Cc and Bcc have similar functions, even more interesting.
Cc (Carbon Copy) allows you to send copies of the same message to multiple email addresses.
Bcc (Blind Carbon Copy) allows you to send messages to people without including others email addresses in the message header.
With To and Cc all email addresses appear in the header of the message you send. If you frequently send messages to lots of people, use Bcc instead of Cc and no one will be able to know to whom you're sending the message.

Tip: you can easily add an email by clicking on (besides To, Cc, Bcc)

If you are composing a long email message, click File>>Save, and a copy of your message is immediately saved in Draft folder. That way you will never lose your messages if something bad happens. Press on Draft folder, open the message and continue from where you left. You can also save messages to any location on your computer. Select a message from a folder (e.g. Inbox), double-click to open it and click File>>Save As.. specify a location and press Save.

When saving you can choose between three different formats:
Mail format (.eml): The file is saved as .eml , 2-click its icon to launch Outlook Express.
Txt Format (.txt): message is stored as a text file, read with Notepad or any text editor.
Html format (.htm, .html): This format is not available for all messages, it allows to save a message as webpage.

The Mail format requires Outlook Express to open the message.
Txt is the safest, since the message can be viewed using any text editor e.g. NotePad.
Html messages can be viewed within any browser e.g. Internet Explorer or Netscape Navigator. If you want to exchange messages through floppies use Txt format.

In most of the time you will be using the Address Book to add email addresses as recipients. In case you've typed an email address manually, click to verify that the address is correct or check if it's available in address book, if not simply click on New Contact in the Check Names window to add the new entry to your Address book.


45. Bcc differs from To and Cc in that
[A]  it’s faster and simpler
[B]  it can send message to multiple receivers
[C]  it won’t reveal others email address

46. If you want to save your message as a webpage, you should choose the format of
[A] (.eml)
[B] (.txt)
[C] (.htm)

47. If you have filled in an address manually, you may click to
[A] check if the address is correct
[B] add a new entry to your Address book
[C] change or delete the address
