Microsoft Excel Tutorial – How to draw a line through text.
Some people call it Strikethrough. Others call it crossing out text.
How can you do it in Microsoft Excel.

This short video starts with a memory aid about taking inventory with a mechanical pencil and making hashmarks. You might start with |||| to mean 4. After the 4th vertical hashmark, you cross out the lines to indicate 5. It is the 5th line that crosses the others out. This is how I remember that Ctrl+5 is Strikethrough!
