Create a New Spreadsheet

In this video, you’ll create a new spreadsheet.

On google.com, find the Google apps icon.

It’s a symbol with nine small dots located in the top right corner of your screen.

Click on the Google apps icon to open the Google Apps menu.

When you open the Google apps menu, you will see the icons of different Google apps.

Click on the gray bar on the right side of the menu, which is called a scroll bar.

Drag it down until you see the Google Sheets icon, which looks like a green rectangle.

Your apps may appear in a different order than the ones in this video.

Now, click on the Google Sheets icon to open Google Sheets.

To create a new blank spreadsheet, click on the image of the document with a large plus sign.

Nice job.

You’ve created your spreadsheet.

Now give your spreadsheet a name.

Click on the gray text in the upper left corner that says “Untitled spreadsheet.” Type in a new name for your spreadsheet.

It can be anything you want.

If you can’t think of another title for your spreadsheet, name it “Celebration Budget.” In the future, you’ll use this name to find your file when you want to open it, so make sure it’s something that tells you what’s inside the spreadsheet.

Now that you’ve created your spreadsheet, it will automatically be saved to your Google Drive, so you can open it at any time, from any computer or device connected to the internet.
