The Unofficial Guide to Microsoft Office Excel 2007

Excel 2007 makes life much easier than it has been in the past. This book will be an easy-to-use, quick reference for when you’re at work and you need to quickly know or be reminded of how to do something; to show you the best, easiest, most efficient ways of doing everything; and possibly show you how you can make your work easier and faster using techniques that you didn’t know you could use.

You’ll find that features and functions are easier to locate via the Ribbon, but you’ll also wonder how to do things you might have done in the past. In this book, we want you to learn how to do things quickly and easily — even if you just skim the book for tips and tricks.

The intention with this book was to write an easy-to-use insider’s guide to the best, quickest ways to do the things that most people need to do (and brief introductions to some features that fewer people need to use, but enough to show you what those features are capable of).
