Excel expert David Ringstrom, CPA, expands on the information he provided in part 1 of Spreadsheet Basics. In this outstanding live webcast, he discusses the Table feature, the Find feature, the Trace Dependents feature, the Replace feature, and others. David also shares a variety of time-saving techniques, including how to minimize data entry, identify duplicate entries, sort lists of data, and recover unsaved workbooks.
David demonstrates every technique at least twice: first, on a PowerPoint slide with numbered steps, and second, in the Office 365 version of Excel. David draws your attention to any differences in the older versions of Excel (2019, 2016, 2013, and earlier) during the presentation as well as in his detailed handouts. David also provides an Excel workbook that includes most of the examples he uses during the webcast.
