This work offers examples and detailed information on Excel's built-in functions and their uses. The accompanying CD augments the help files, allowing users to link to live workbooks illustrating certain functions. The book also includes one chapter dedicated to the most commonly used functions and one chapter that explores how to integrate multiple functions together for advanced usage.
This is a book we had around the office so I picked it up and started using it... A good book... All the material is also downloadable from the Cd so it's well worth the time in spreadsheet creation alone with plug and play models... I would have to recommend this one..
A Very Good Reference for Functions
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
A very good reference with lots of examples. Each example has the corresponding formula that's also in the workbooks on the CD. Another good reference by QUE. I have to agree with the review that states "we need more books like this with examples followed up on the CD." And, how about making the charting reference on the CD into a book? I could really use one of those too.
Outstanding - clear, and comprehensive

This is a great visual aid for learning in detail how to use Excel's functions. Great examples with live workbooks on the CD too. It also has a great 400+ page charting tutorial on the CD.
Very useful balance between clarity and brevity

Clean, clear examples of how and why to use the various worksheet functions in Excel. Explains and illustrates without overwhelming you with spurious details.
Great Practical Reference to Functions!

I've been waiting for this book to come out since I've purchased the Special Edition Excel Book. A great straight forward reference. What I like best is that all the workbooks are live on the CD. Finally, someone's including the examples ; )
