Formulas and functions with Microsoft Excel 2003

The old "80/20" rule for software - that 80 percent of users use only 20 percent of a program's features - doesn't apply to Microsoft Excel. Instead, this program operates under what could be called the "95/5" rule: 95 percent of Excel users use a mere 5 percent of the program's features. Most of those users know that they could be getting more out of Excel by using more of its commands and options, but aren't sure where to start. Excel is big and complex, and most of its intermediate-to-advanced features are shrouded in the mysteries of mathematics, finance, and impenetrable spreadsheet jargon. This Business Solutions title demystifies the program's features and presents them in a jargon-free way. This book not only takes them through Excel's intermediate and advanced options, but also tells them why these options are useful and shows them how to use them in everyday situations and real-world models. This book aims to do all of this with no-nonsense, step-by-step tutorials and lots of practical, useful examples.

First sentence: The old 80/20 rule for software-that 80% of a program's users use only 20% of a program's features-doesn't apply to Microsoft Excel.
