How do you add statistical measures such as minimum and maximum to the status bar?

To add statistical measures such as minimum and maximum to the status bar in Excel, you achieve this by right-clicking on the status bar itself and choosing the desired options from the context menu that appears. The status bar is a feature located at the bottom of the Excel window, which provides quick access to various statistical information based on the selected cells, including sums, averages, counts, minimums, and maximums.

When you right-click the status bar, a list of options becomes available, allowing you to customize which statistics you want to be displayed. This feature helps users quickly understand data without needing to perform calculations manually or create additional formulas.

The other choices do not provide a method to access or add measures to the status bar. For example, selecting cells and accessing the formula bar pertains to entering or editing formulas rather than modifying the status bar. Navigating to the View tab in the ribbon is for modifying worksheet views and layout options, which does not relate to displaying measures on the status bar. Lastly, choosing from the Format Cells dialog is focused on formatting cell content rather than altering status bar settings.
