Book Reviews of Excel Formulas and Functions For Dummies
Book Review: Really Helps at Work
Summary: 5 Stars
I have to create a lot of Excel spreadsheets at work, and was always sort of intimidated by the functions in Excel. Instead of using functions, I spent a lot of time entering numbers and then finding the answer by hand, and just typing the answer in an empty cell. If any of the data changed, I would have to do all of the calculations over again, and hope that I didn't make any mistakes. This book explains each of the Excel functions in a really clear and easy to understand way, and walks you through how to use them step by step. I'm using more and more functions in my spreadsheets now. I don't have as many mistakes as before, because the functions do the calculations automatically, even when you change some of the data. I keep this book in my desk and look at it all the time. The people I work for have noticed the difference in the quality of my spreadsheets, and I'm getting a lot of complements. They're even coming to me to ask for advice! I definitely recommend this book if you use Excel at work.
