 After you enter data into a cell, you can edit the data by pressing F2 key white you are in the cell you wish to edit.

You can also edit the data by Double clicking on the cell.

And another alternative method for editing enter data by using the formula bar.

 1.12 Wrap Text

Text that is too lengthy to fit in a single cell will overlap the cell after it. You can wrap the text to prevent it from overlapping the subsequent cell.

 The text in the A1 cell in the image above is too long to fit in a single cell and overlaps other cells. To avoid this, wrap text in the A2 cell, which is shown by an arrow in the image, can be used.

 1.13 Delete a cell entry
