Are you tired of wrestling with messy spreadsheets? 

Do you wish there was a faster way to organize your data and create professional-looking tables?

Here's a Cool Tip.  Use the new Pre-Built Tables in Google Sheets.

Google Sheets has heard your pleas and delivered a game-changing solution: pre-built tables. 

Google Sheets is a free, web-based spreadsheet application offered by Google as part of its Google Workspace suite (formerly G Suite). 

It's like Microsoft Excel, but it lives online and can be accessed from any device with an internet connection.

Here's how to do it.

1. Open a new or existing Google Sheet. 
2. Click on the "Insert" menu and select "Tables." A sidebar will appear showcasing a variety of pre-built table templates.
3. Explore the available templates, ranging from project trackers and calendars to invoices and to-do lists. 
4. Tables include Recruitment Applications, Event Planning, Customer Relations, Project Management and Travel Planning.
5. Click on a template to preview its structure and formatting.
6. Once you've found the perfect template, click "Insert" to add it to your sheet. 
7. Customize the table by adding your own data, adjusting column widths, and modifying colors to match your preferences.

• Freelancers: Simplify invoicing with pre-formatted invoice templates.

Google Sheets' new pre-built tables are a game-changer for anyone who works with data.
