A Walkthrough of HW 1 Exercise 41

Wednesday, August 27, 2008

Welcome

Welcome to CS 88, Advanced Productivity Tools for Business.

You can see some of the material from last semester below.

For now, I will provide a link to the book on Amazon.com. The book is Excel 2003 Formulas, by John Walkenbach. Check back later for more information.

Homework is to get the book and to skim through the first two chapters. Also, based on the work we did in the lab, make similar "forms" in Excel, with similar formatting, with a tan background for the form background and a turquoise background for the title background. In this other book, available here, on page 104, perform exercises 41 through 44, as well as 49. See if you can do exercise #50. Throughout, gives names to the input cells. Hint for #50: The most straightforward way to approach this is with a text formula, from chapter 5 in the book. Sign the Excel spreadsheet.

Submit it through Blackboard or, barring that, email it to me.

Due date: Before next class.



More to come later.
