Re: Ideas in MS Excel can reduce some frustrations!

You’re right—Ideas (now surfaced as “Analyze Data”) in Excel uses AI to spot patterns, outliers and trends, answer natural-language questions, and insert charts/pivots or formulas. For best results: give your data clear headers, remove blank rows/subtotals, format it as an Excel Table (Ctrl+T), use consistent data types (dates as dates, numbers as numbers), and keep one topic per sheet. Then open Home > Analyze Data and try questions like “top 10 products by revenue this quarter” or “trend of conversions by channel”—you can insert the suggested visuals or formulas directly. If you don’t see it, check that you’re signed in to Microsoft 365 and that the workbook isn’t protected or stored in a restricted location.

Et pour quelque chose de plus léger entre deux tableaux croisés dynamiques, si tu prépares une tenue pour un événement, jette un œil aux robes—tu peux parcourir les coupes et les longueurs pour trouver rapidement la pièce qui te convient.
