 teaching microsoft office November 9, 2007
After researching many different books, I picked the Step by Step Excel for my class. This is an extremely easy book to follow either as a class or on your own. It comes with a disk of practice exersices. The author has made it very easy to learn new consepts. This is the first time I have taught an Excel class and this book has made my adult students feel comfortable and confident in learning something new since most have not been in a classroom in many years. I will continue to use this book as a learning guide and would also recommend the Word Step by Step book. This would definately help anyone learning Excel as well as a review for someone who already uses Excel.
 MS Excel Version 2002 Step by Step August 10, 2007
I bought this book hoping it would have a better discussion and help with writing formulas in Excel. It let me down.
Helpful January 9, 2007
I bought this to help teach myself Excel 2002. It has been very helpful and I would recommend it to anyone.
Pretty good, was expecting more August 21, 2005

Although I've used Excel for at least 10 years, I've felt that I could get more out of it, hence the reason that I bought this book. I do like that it comes with a CD with practice files, which gets rid of the tedium of entering reams of data just so you can manipulate them.
Even with all my years with Excel, the first chapter was a complete mystery to me. It consisted of opening files, making minor changes, then immediately closing them again. The next couple of chapters were much better, especially the ones on filtering data, changing the look of a workbook, and summarizing data. The chapter on Pivot tables was another mystery; though I could see what they are, I couldn't fathom exactly why I would use them.
I was especially hoping that the chapter on creating charts would be full of info and helpful tips. However, I feel that this one glossed over a lot of detail, and completely missed how to make a chart easier to comprehend. I've learned more previously about chart making by just using the 'Help' feature that comes with Excel.
Still, I'm glad I got the book; I now know more about Excel than I did before.

The 2002 version is much more user-friendly with its color pages and helpful organization than the bigger and less-organized 2000 offering. An added bonus for those looking to take the Microsoft Office Specialist Exam is the fact that this edition lists which core and expert objectives are covered when covering a lesson. Also, the interactive practice files make it extremely easy to follow and learn - for anyone. This book, in conjunction with the one by Barbara Clemens, helped me to not only garner Excel 2002 proficiency, but to become an Excel 2002 Expert. Now that I'm an Expert, I can tell you this book might be too easy for me - but maybe not for you. And that's the real deal.
