How to Fix Inconsistent Names and Text in Excel|Part 1

Before learning advanced tools, it's important to develop data-cleaning thinking skills. Excel helps you understand data-cleaning concepts before moving to automation tools like Power Query. In this video, we start by fixing one of the most overlooked issues in Excel, inconsistent header formatting. You’ll learn how to quickly standardize column names using the PROPER function instead of manually editing each header one by one. Next, we move into cleaning customer name data, where we tackle real-world problems such as: inconsistent capitalization, numbers and special characters appearing in text, extra spaces and hidden characters. #excel #dataanalytics #datacleaning #exceltips
