Hard to get through -- but worth it!

I had very little knowledge of Excel 97 when i picked this book up. But i read it from page 1 all the way through to the end, and became an expert. I remember dozing off a few times though.I wish i had the book still. I was able to land a contract programming excel, and i LEANED on this book, people. Most of everything was explained clearly. The only thing i still have trouble with is understanding pivot tables. For some reason, i just dont get them.Bottom line. Topics are explained well (I guess because I learned them). I recommend this book. The only reason i give it 4 stars is that it wasn't that much fun to read.

Excellent Reference

I am an accomplished user of Microsoft Excel and feel that this is an excellent reference book. There are many helpful tips that help you to learn shortcuts to methods you may already have acquired. The book does go into detail about Internet usage integration, but it is NOT a reference on Excel Visual Basic. For that one reason, this book CANNOT be a complete reference.

A good reference for the intermediate level user.

Although the book is designed for accomplished to expert users, it starts at a very "beginner" level. It covers more than adequately all aspects of Excel 97, with the exception of VBA, which I thought would be of most interest to the targeted reader. It is well written and easily understood. A good book that will answer most readers questions.
