Overview of the webinar
Excel expert David H. Ringstrom, CPA, shows you various ways to make sense of complicated formulas within Microsoft Excel in this insightful presentation. Sometimes your formulas can grow out of control, or, more likely, you’ve inherited spreadsheets from others that you’re to take ownership of.
David demonstrates features, such as the N function for making notes in the formula bar, using the F9 key to evaluate portions of a formula and even ways to move the pesky formula help caption out of the way when it obscures a cell or column heading you need to see. After this webcast, you’ll be able to quickly decipher even the most complex Excel formulas.
David will demonstrate techniques from Excel 2016, but his detailed handouts identify differences in Excel 2007, 2010, 2013, and 2016 when needed. His webcasts are fast-paced and attendees often are surprised at the amount of ground he covers in a session. He welcomes participants’ questions, so come ready to pick his brain. David’s detailed handouts, with numbered steps, serve as reference material you can utilize going forward. He also provides an Excel workbook that includes most of the examples he uses during the webcast.
