Having not used Excel much, this topic has taught me an abundance of useful and practical lessons. The overview of using Microsoft Excel was more than I had known before taking this course. The Workbook Structure showed me the basics of using the application. It talked about simple naviagation of spreadsheets and the data it contains, in addition to shortcuts that increase effiency and productivity.
I think it's essential that everyone have somewhat of a clue on how to use Excel, especially if that person is going into the business field. A few of the things that I learned include: Colums are lettered and rows are numbered. 2007 Excel supports 16,384 columns to be exact, as well as 65,536 rows. This was amazing to me because the previous version of Excel, the 2003 edition, had no where close to this quantity. Each cell consists of the column letter plus the row number. A few keyboard shortcuts are : Cntrl+ arrow keys to reach a boundary of data, Cntrl+ Home takes you to the top left corner of the spreadsheet, Cntrl+ Page up or down takes you through the differend layers of spreadsheets. These are but a few things I learned in this week's topic.
