Microsoft Excel 2007 Level 1

Microsoft Excel 2007 is a powerful spreadsheet software program that allows you to make quick and accurate numerical calculations. Entering data onto a spreadsheet (or a "worksheet," as it is called in Excel) is quick and easy. Once data has been entered in a worksheet, Excel can instantly perform any type of calculation on it. Excel can also make your information look sharp and professional.

The uses for Excel are limitless: businesses use Excel for creating financial reports, scientists use Excel for statistical analysis, and families use Excel to help manage their investment portfolios. Microsoft Excel is by far the most widely used and, according to most reviews, the most powerful and user friendly spreadsheet program available.
