Getting Started

[DougMo]

Hello.

I need to add to my few Excel skills, as my employer wants me to persue a Business Analyst track. My skill level is not quite a beginner, but close to it.

What Mr. Excel beooks should I purchase, and how can I use this site to sharpen up?

Best Regrads,
Doug

Have a look at books by Walkenbach for formulas and Peltier for charts and tables.
Also follow this forum....look at the posted questions and try to solve them for yourself, then see the posted answers to improve your skillset.
Also, find a project that requires Excel skills and use iy as your base for adding formulas, charts, macros,etc.
