I have thorugh work being doing a basic Excel course for staff. People wanted a more advanced course to do more fancy things. As this was new territory for me, I purchased this book, based on the first review.
It is very very good, it expects you to know a good basic level of Excel,
but the way it describes how to do certain Excel functions, espcially VB objects has made the learning of these new skills a joy.
I never really thought I would get to grips with Macros and assigning them to command buttons, but the way it is laid out is very easy to understand yet very powerful.
It readily builds from one section to the next. The last chapter, 50 Excel tips is really great, about 30 of them I had never come across and yet they are very concise but great for adding value to creating a course.
Thank You.

I teach adults with good IT skills. Many are 'reluctant to buy this book. However once they buy the book they think it is excellent - lots of stuff is here that they recognise they dont know.
If in doubt, buy the book. Many of my students re so impressed with one that they buy a second. Only weakness is lack of VBA

This is a very good book. However, the third edition, published in 2008, states that 'all materials in this book work in all versions of Excel'. This is not true since Excel 2007 is very different from previous versions of Excel and many of the more advanced features are not easily accessible without referring to Excel 2007 specific books. I hope that the authors do a fourth edition which takes into consideration the changes made in Excel 2007 and other later versions of Excel. Advanced Spreadsheet Projects in Excel
