How to Find Help Topics in Excel

You can search Excel's help for related help topics.

To find help topics in Excel 2007, complete the following steps:

  1. In the upper right corner of the Excel menu bar, click the Help icon.
  2. In the Search field, enter the word PivotTable or any other appropriate words for which you want to find help topics.
  3. Click Search.

    Topics that match your search criteria display in the results list.

    When you search for an exact help topic title, it does not necessarily display the topic at the top of the results list. You may have to scroll through the list to find it. Also, if an Excel dialog box has a Help icon in the upper right corner of the title bar, click the icon to open a help topic that contains information specifically for that dialog box.
