I unfortunately find myself in the position of needing to find a new job (company has been taken over by a competitor who is unlikely to retain all staff, and certainly not in my current location). Hence, I need to ensure my skills (Excel and otherwise) are honed. So the question is: where do I target my development? I'm pretty comfortable with most of excel (charts apart - I have literally never used them before) and fairly comfortable with VBA.
I figure that in my position and likely roles as an accountant, becoming (even more) comfortable with ADO and connections to external databases would be a good move.
Also, ADO connections to text data sources could be useful.
Maybe brushing up on my SQL? Access programming?
It's an open field - what do you guys recommend?
Thanks
Richard
