Customer Reviews

Easy to follow
This was a really good book to read and to understand Excel. It was well indexed and did not get too over the top using geek only talk. I am finding the info a little dated though today and I am looking forward to buying something like Excel 2003 or newer because some of this does not apply to the newer versions of Excel. Based on how well this book was done I will look to the same authors for this too.

Great introduction, easy reference
For someone who needs quick answers to very specific problems, illustrated in great detail, and indexed very thoroughly, this will be hard to beat. Everything I tried to do was successful on first try. My homebuying clients will appreciate the attractive sheets of financial info. I'm also using it for quick entry of information which I download to my Palmtop.
