• Use macros to automate common tasks
• Handle text in Excel using string functions
• Use data validation to improve accuracy and efficiency
using the documentation and support provided.
Modules covered in this course
Templates – Templates help you increase productivity and standardisation by allowing you to specify all the things that each instance of a given spreadsheet must contain.
Macros – By creating macros which mimic interactive processes you can speed up your handling of repetitive tasks.
String-Handling Features and Functions – This group of functions allows you to examine data values in a variety of detailed and sophisticated ways.
PivotTables – This section introduces pivot tables, an analysis method that allows you to rapidly summarise repetitive data in great detail.
Data Validation – Use Data Validation to ensure that users enter data into specific columns according to given content rules.
We recommend that you bring real-life examples and problems from work with you
so that you can go back to work after training having made real progress.
