Spreadsheet Software

Microsoft Excel may be the most powerful and versatile spreadsheet software on the planet.  It can perform anything from basic to very complicated arithmetic and calculations on data and is especially useful as accounting software.  This makes it much more than just ordinary spreadsheet software and it is valued by small companies who cannot afford expensive accounting software.  Audit Excel offers courses to teach you to become proficient at using Excel.

The Excel interface should be mastered first and in Excel 2007, this means the Office Button, the Quick Access Toolbar, the Formula Bar, the Title Bar, the Ribbon and the Status Bar.  You will learn what all these things are for and what functions they perform.  Actually creating a worksheet is simple enough and after you have mastered the selection of cells and how to enter and delete data, you would move on to perform calculations, cut, copy, paste and align cell data.  Simple spreadsheet operations also include basic formatting like bold, underline and italic, background and font colour and adding and deleting rows and columns.

Excel’s functions are perfect for performing your calculations and can sort your data according to several criteria and conditions.  Excel can also be told to fill cells automatically with series data, like the days of the week.  Other areas to master would be Reference Operators, headers and footers, printing a worksheet and charts.

Microsoft Excel remains the spreadsheet software of choice around the world, despite many competitors.  Its ability to allow you to perform multiple, complex calculations is unrivalled.  Contact Audit Excel today and we can tell you how our courses can make you an Excel expert.
