Welcome to Excel 2010 Formulas. I approached this project with one goal in mind: To write the
ultimate book about Excel 2010 formulas that would appeal to a broad base of users. That’s a
fairly ambitious goal. But based on the feedback I received from the first four editions, I think I’ve
accomplished it.
Excel is the spreadsheet market leader, by a long shot. This is the case not only because of
Microsoft’s enormous marketing clout, but because it is truly the best spreadsheet available. One
area in which Excel’s superiority is most apparent is formulas. Excel has some special tricks up its
sleeve in the formulas department. As you’ll see, Excel lets you do things with formulas that are
impossible with other spreadsheets.
It’s a safe bet that only about 10 percent of Excel users really understand how to get the most out
of worksheet formulas. In this book, I attempt to nudge you into that elite group. Are you up to it?
What You Need to Know
This is not a book for beginning Excel users. If you have absolutely no experience with Excel, this
is probably not the best book for you — unless you’re one of a rare breed who can learn a new
software product almost instantaneously.
To get the most out of this book, you should have some background using Excel. Specifically, I
assume that you know how to
- Create workbooks, insert sheets, save files, and complete other basic tasks
- Navigate through a workbook
- Use the Excel 2010 Ribbon and dialog boxes
- Use basic Windows features, such as file management and copy and paste techniques
