Struggling to complete a inventory list for house fire please help never used excel before
Hello and thank you if you are reading this. I was sent a excel inventory list that I have to fill out every item from when my house burnt down. I have no clue how to navigate quickly or fill it out properly I made 4 different copies unknowingly and can not figure out how to merge them or copy and paste them. Please help thank you

Here's a YouTube video that will walk you through copy and paste in Excel.
Do you know how to copy and paste in Word or any other applications? It's not all that different. Give us an idea of what you do know.

mathetes I appreciate your response and help. I can copy and paste some of it. I had just filled it out again being I had 3 copies. I was looking for an easier way to complete the home inventory list. I have to keep leaving excel and googling each item to see the cost of each item.

Is it possible for you to post a copy of what you have created so far--post it on OneDrive or GoogleDrive, then paste a link here that grants access. If I or others could see the actual format, we might have ideas that would help fill it out more quickly.
One thought, since you mention that you "keep leaving excel and googling each item to see the cost of each item," if you could convert your file to a Google Sheets file (easily done, by just dragging and dropping into a Google Drive), then you could remain in your browser, just switching from one tab to the other. If you are not able to transfer your file to Google, if you could post your Excel file, as noted above, on OneDrive, then I could do it for you.
