Question: 6

Define Column, Row, Cell, Cell Pointer?

Columns: Columns are vertical lines of Cells. They are named from A to Z afterwards AA to AZ, BA to BZ and so on.

Rows: Rows are horizontal lines of Cells. A number identifies each row.

Cell : A cell is the point where the row and the column intersect. The width of cell spaces can be altered to suit the application.
