Formulas are the foundation for most basic and complex spreadsheets that store data and calculate results based on thousands of rows and dozens of columns. You can use these formulas and then move on to scenarios, pivot tables and what-if charts. These features provide you with a more advanced tools that track your reports and create projections for your business.

Most Excel spreadsheets have at least one chart included, so we have tutorials on using graphs and images. These added components help make spreadsheets more visually appealing. We also include ways to use common functions. We include ways to sort and filter data, so you can view large data sets in chronological, alphabetical or numerical order.

The final lesson covers the basics of Visual Basic for Applications (VBA).  VBA is a language used to make macros using the Visual Basic language.
