"How do" those who will give results "take over Excel?" Is a chic design of navy and gold.


All 271 pages, there is considerable thickness.


It is said that the usage of Excel is summarized focusing on practical documents at the business site such as "presentation material" and "monthly report".


The point of this book is not to cover all the functions of Excel, but to "be able to get over Excel" by limiting it to the Excel technique necessary for business.


The content of the book is like this, it is finished to make it easy to read with full color printing based on blue. First of all, as a result of questionnaire to 100 business people by saying "How business people use Excel?", It is clear that Excel is overwhelmingly used more than other software It is getting. As "External Application Materials Preparation" is ranked first in Excel, in this book, the first chapter summarizes the know-how of "Presentation Materials".


In the question "Failed to fail", such as a bitter failure that everyone has experienced at the time such as "I ended without saving" and "characters were protruding from the cell at the time of printing" , A mistake that occurred because it was not accustomed to the operation of Excel such as "I broke a macro and broke". In "How to use usually doing" introduces the points that are likely to be helpful when using Excel, such as "Table is not stretched horizontally and built vertically", "Color, letters, cells, sheets are color-coded".

"Three shortcut keys you want to memorize for the first time""Overwrite Save: Ctrl + S" "Undo: Ctrl + Z" "Cancel: Escape"We introduce three kinds of basic shortcut commands.

Functions frequently used in Excel are consolidated in the right-click menu, so you can work efficiently by "using tabs at the top of the screen and using the right-click menu".


If you copy the calculation result of the formula and paste it in another cell, you can not display the original numerical value correctly. In that case, display "Pressed by format" screen with "Ctrl + Alt + V" and display "value" You can choose OK.


As a method of saving operation with the mouse, a shortcut for selecting a range of cells with "Shift + Arrow Keys" ......


Remember to shorten the operation of the keyboard and efficiently perform character input Copy the upper cell with "date input" "time input" command, copy the upper cell with "Ctrl + D", copy the left cell with "Ctrl + R" And useful functions, such as shortcut keys that you can not do without knowing that within-a-cell linefeed with "Alt + Enter" peculiar to Excel, are full of functions to improve efficiency. Before using Excel, looking at the Appendix at the end of the book seems to dramatically increase the work speed.


In Chapter 1, "What is the point of easy-to-read materials? - presentation materials", formatting is important in order to create documents that are conveyed to the other party, and pay attention to the two points of "reducing elements" and "reducing the movement of the viewpoint" It is a point to create materials.

In chapter 3, "basics of data management is a database format", two kinds of tables are exemplified, and the upper table seems to be easy to read at first glance, but when you manage a large amount of data It is a tabular format in which elements are separated and difficult to use.

In addition, in Chapter 4 "What is data aggregation useful for business?", It is important that the task of "aggregating data by dividing data" rather than a simple total of data is important to utilize the collected data for business Description.

In general business, the ratio used to grasp the achievement is "composition ratio", "comparison with the previous", "budget ratio".


For example, using "conditional format" to highlight the percentage of budget relative to last year ... ...


Functions that I did not know, such as the "RANK.EQ" function that calculates the ranking of persons in charge from the sales amount data, as well as the functions that I knew but did not use, "We can use it like this It is easy to understand as "I wonder".


The "address book" of chapter 7 that seems to be usable not only at the business site but also in everyday life is a basic arrangement such as "to place items with frequent reference to the left", "fix heading", "leave update history" The ingenuity of it is introduced. For example, when creating a "member list", if you frequently contact members, place phone numbers and e-mail addresses to the left, examples where you put gender and age on the left side in the case of a marketing list It is shown.


It is a hassle to input kanji notation and phonetic expression separately when entering your name, but using "PHONETIC function" allows you to display the phonetic data that Excel saves in the background Possible.
