Customer Reviews

Excellent training tool

Interesting real-world problems - beginners can easily follow along, those experienced in word processing can pick up tips and ideas.

Fine Beginner's Text

This is Microsoft approved courseware geared toward passing the Proficient Level MOUS Exam. Since I reviewed from this text to pass the Expert Level exam, I would not know if the exercises are sufficient for the Proficient Level exam. However, to pass the Expert Level exam, you must study from this book with its companion: Excel 97 Step By Step Advanced. Any other advanced books and some work experience is beneficial as well. The tasks provide fundamental knowledge but Accountants and other more spreadsheet intensive positions may need study aids focused on Excel's more advanced analytical, mathematical, and statistical functions.

Excellent beginning guide!

Prior to picking up this book, I had never touched Excel. After spending a week with it, on a whim, I took and passed the Excel Certified User test. I now use Excel regularly in my duties. I recommend this series to everyone I meet. (If there was an option for 6 stars, I'd use it.) Next on my list of purchases is the Advanced Topics book.
