Multigrade

Choose columns: move the mouse over the top-right corner of the header column (at which point a down arrow appears), and click once, a menu should appear. This menu should display the top level groupings of columns (Student Information and Grades are constant, the others will have the Category name that you provide when you create categories). Move the mouse over any of these menu items and a sub-menu will appear with checkboxes. Checking a checkbox will cause the column to appear. Unchecking will cause the column to be hidden. Category grouping sub-menus include "Show All" and "Hide All" options to check or uncheck all the underlying items in a single click.

Multigrade

Grade student with points or percentage grades: place the mouse over a grade item cell in the spreadsheet. Click once and the cell should be outlined in blue. Type a number. Hit ENTER, TAB, or click elsewhere with the mouse to submit that grade. When your gradebook is in "Points" mode, if you try to enter a value greater than the maximum allowed points for that assignment you should get an error at the top of the spreadsheet. To toggle between "Points" and "Percentage" mode, click on the "Setup" menu item in the top toolbar and navigate to the "Gradebook" tab. There is a radio box form element in this panel that toggles between the two "grade types".
