Good Review of Formulas and Functions
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
This book does a nice job on reviewing formulas and functions. It covers a lot of functions that other books gloss over or don't mention such as arrays, rounding, date/time functions etc.It spends a lot of time on logic and lookup functions. Best of all, it uses good business examples that help explain how to use the function. My big gripe with the book is that at times it skips details and just assumes the reader knows how to do something or understands why you would want to do something. Personally, I think the 2003 version explained details a little bit better however I still think that this is one of the better books out there for people wanting to use formulas and functions in a business environment. If you are looking for a book on solver and what-if however there are a lot better books out there.
