Ok, goal achieved. But a classmate borrowed me a Advanced Excel book from a course she took on vacations and I’m interested in do the lessons. I know I won’t practice it sooner, but it list I can know the existence of more functions and resources.
How to learn Excel
How I did it: I followed a (college) course that taught me excel, I did some excel on my spare time, and looked up things in the online help.Tada,I know Excel
Lessons & tips: I can help with some things. I use excel 2007. I know advanced formulas, can do pivor tables and so on. I can't do any macro's.
Resources: I followed a course that taught me excel, I did some excel on my spare time, and looked up things in the online help.I did not use any books.
People doing this are also doing these things:

I can consider I learned a lot of Excel in the last months in this internship program everytime we needed to organize the information to each end of quarter. As I won’t be there anymore in the end of this quarter, I know I won’t learn something new in the next weeks. Maybe in the next program or job.
So, I’m considering this goal as achieved, but I know Excel is something that nobody can learn everything in a life and I’ll have to get something new when I have another type of work on it.
I think I finally learned how to use theses functions. They were so helpful in my works last week.
I think I have to do some Excel personal archive to organize what I do with my money during the month.

I know enough Excel for my current spreadsheet needs, and anything I need I can usually look up online. So there’s no real defined end for this goal, thus, Goal Completed!

Well, two basics. How to do sums, and how to multiply things. That’s really all I need at the moment (to fill out invoices). To actually track market data… We’ll figure that out later.

One of my aunts is a financial consultant, and she promised to teach me the basics. I really just need to get the basics (formulas, charts, graphs, etc). I always say I know Microsoft Office, for interviews, but I know my limited Excel knowledge is going to bite me in the butt one day if I don’t fix it!

On to class 2. The first one was really hard for me,but I think I am starting to understand the simpler stuff. Now I will see if I can understand some of the harder things. :)
I’m ashamed to say I know enough about excel to be dangerous. I do have it installed on my home computer and have played around with it a bit. I don’t have to use it at work on a regular basis so there really is no reason to learn – I just want to. We have FREE classes available to us through one of our carriers to take excel training but management wont let us do it because it will take away from work time. I think I may propose to management that I will do this on my own time during work hours. I have debated paying for a class for excel and to take an online class from home or something like that. I just don’t like not being comfortable with a program. I know once I get started it will be easy. I just need to learn the basics.
