In this sweeping presentation Excel expert David Ringstrom, CPA, explores Excel's powerful Table feature. This feature offers an astonishing number of automation and data integrity opportunities, all without writing any programming code. Start saving time today by creating charts that resize themselves as you add data; formulas and pivot tables that automatically accommodate expansions of a data set; and get through analytical tasks more effectively and efficiently.
David demonstrates every technique at least twice: first, on a PowerPoint slide with numbered steps, and second, in Excel 2016. He draws to your attention any differences in Excel 2013, 2010, or 2007 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.
