I am an experienced, self-taught user of Excel but bought this book to see if there was anything in it that could help me advance my skills further. This book did far more than that! It is really great and I can highly recommend it, (particularly the section about the use of arrays in Excel.)
John Walkenbach provides you with lots of handy tips and tricks and ensures you have a good grounding in each topic before advancing. His language is simple and easy to read with lots of working examples and a wide range of topics.
This book is really excellent and I can HIGHLY recommend it for a user of almost any skill level. It serves as an excellent reference manual. I also highly recommend his book on Excel 2003 Power Programming with VBA. In combination these two books will help you comfortably conquer Excel.

This author knows his stuff. The book is packed with good information and working examples. A definite purchase for anyone wanting to expand their Excel knowledge. As a supposedly competent Excel user, I learned a lot from this publication.

Not the best option

I have this and the Excel 2003 Bible. Don't waste time on this. Go right for Excel Bible. This one seems to be a duplicate with only a small amount of expansion. Excel 2003 Bible will help you through a lot more problems.

Okay, but no cigar
2 Aug 2006
By Book Buyer
- Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
Typically these technical how-to books are badly written and rushed to print and I found this one to be no exception. Although it offers some helpful hints not found in other Excel guides, it is rather wordy and vague in places. Some of the sample formulas simply do not work or else are not explained fully in context. Added to this, the accompanying CD skimps on the first four chapters, making it impossible to follow along on some the exercises the author provides. In some cases, he doesn't even provide a sample table. I went out and bought a copy of Microsoft's Excel Data Analysis and Business Modeling and find this to be better written, much more comprehensive, and easier on the wallet.

It's the BOM!
27 Jan 2005
By Mfg Cost Analysis
- Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
I use Excel non-stop for Bill Of Material (BOM) and pricing/cost analysis for manufacturing. This is by far the best publication available for the number crunching workhorse. I just find it peculiar that John decided to introduce "financial formulas" in Chapter 11. But seriously, it's loaded with boo-koos of real word examples that have made my work much more automated and easier.
