Microsoft Excel 2003: Top 100 Simplified Tips & Tricks

I think these are useful books for beginners. Many (but not all) of the "Teach Yourself Visually" series books are good -- check reviews first on the one you are considering. This one is not exactly a "TYV" book - it's a variant (100 tips for Excel 2003 Simplified) is a pretty good one.

I would like to recomend this small yet simple book. it has a list of 100 very simple instructions that can get you out of the most common messes one gets one into. A friend of mine needed some "professional" help in dealing with an Excel workbook she was working for at work. I had to help her and I purchased this book. Believe it or not, this book had the answers to the things she was looking for. She came up to me and thanked me from the bottom of her heart and told me, "How da heck did you learn all this", hahaha, my secret? a few hours spent reading this book. Hey, I have purchased now numerous books from these guys after I found out how easy it was to learn from these didactic books. Sure, I give them my stars!....I dont know who they are but I have this way of thinking....if someone work hard in puting together a book that helps me, he deserves my stars!
