Dear Readers & Friends,
I am very happy to announce that Excel School online training program is now available for your consideration. Please read this short post to understand what you will get when you sign-up for this program and how you can join.
What will you get when you join?
- Access to Private Member-only Classroom: Where you can learn, ask questions, share ideas and discuss home work & class projects.
- Weekly Excel Lessons for 12 weeks: Includes Videos, Demos, Animations, Excel Workbooks
- Downloadable Lessons: You can download the lessons once every 4 weeks so that you can learn at leisure
- 2 Class Projects: Where you will build a Dynamic chart and a simple dashboard based on the techniques taught in the program
- 3 Bonus Weeks: Apart from the 12 weeks of regular training, I have 3 bonus weeks planned on (1) Excel Shortcuts and Productivity (2) Macros (3) Form Controls. This bonus content will be released in parallel with regular content so that the program duration is not changed.
- Excel Formula Cheat-sheet: This one page PDF file can act like a quick reference for Excel Formulas.
- Useful Excel Shortcuts – Cheat-sheet: Print this one pager and stick it near your desk. You will never have to search for most-common key board shortcuts.
- Complimentary Access to Member area even after the course ends. That is right. The entire course contents, neatly structured by week will be available for access, download and discussion even after 12 weeks are over. You can access all the content for 6 more weeks. Membership gives you access for 22 weeks. So even if you are busy and missed few weeks of the program, you can always comeback and learn at leisure.
Important things to keep in mind:
- I will close the Excel School registration and payments on 17th Feb, 2010. No new members will be added after that. So if you want in, you better hurry.
- Classes will begin on 22nd Feb, 2010 and go on until last week of May. You can watch all the lessons, continue discussions until 4th of July.
- This program is not for absolute newbies. The words ‘formula’, ‘reference’, ‘chart’ should ring a bell for you. If not, this program is not for you.
Pricing & Payment Options
You have two payment options. You can either pay one time or pay three monthly payments.
(please visit this page if you cannot see the payment buttons in your e-mail or feed reader)

Ciao Hui,
Collecting Excel tricks under the title “Notable Excel Websites (Non-MVP) Edition” is a brilliant idea…
Thank you in the name of all The FrankensTeam.
On our site there is a box with a picture and text highlighting:
This is a no-MVP site
we think ourselves “bad boys” a bit 🙂
For those who would like to know why our site is a no-MVP site, enough to click on the link:

Thank you again!
Thanks a lot
I really enjoyed this (newsletter). I must admit that I rarely read an Excel newsletter (and I subscribe to quite a few) all the way though, but this grabbed my attention and before I realized it, I was engrossed in it. I must also admit that most of this I don’t understand, yet. But, it excites me when I do learn something new in Excel. I can’t wait to see how much of this I can implement into my (constantly-evolving) ‘House Budget’ & ‘Family Medical’ worksheets that I have developed over the past few years! I sure hope to see more of these type of newsletters in the future! Thanks!
Thanks for doing this Hui! I appreciate being included.
I like Tom’s tip a lot. I posted about a tool I wrote to automate this at http://yoursumbuddy.com/tables-edit-query-dialog/
EXCELLENT !
Hui, This post is Superb! More over I have always been a fan of Roberto’s work and have learnt a lot from him.

I like the Excel Ninja Menus.
1. Select a cell or range then move till the 4-way cross appears. Right-Click and drag the selection to another place in the worksheet then, like a ninja, a menu full of skills and throwing stars pops up allowing me to do all kinds of awesomeness.
2. When you click the fill box on a Date and right click and drag it down, a lot of amazing Date options pop up.
I also brand my Excel to remind myself that I’m awesome. In my personal macro workbook I place the following code.
Private Sub Workbook_Open()
Application.Caption = “SuperKrishna’s Awesomeness”
End Sub
My favorite tip goes along with #17. If you try to copy subtotaled data (and in earlier Excel versions filtered data),when you paste it all the data displays instead of just the summarized data.
To get around this, select your summarized data, click on Find and Select tab and then select Go to Special. Click Visible cells Only and click OK. Now paste and you will see that only the summarized data has been copied.
You can also go CTRL+G and then click the Special icon at the bottom of the dialog box.
What a great idea, Chandoo! I’d love to be included in your next edition:) Perhaps a VBA exclusive version?
@Ryan
I will review this concept about 6 months out from the original post and be sure to keep your site in mind
Hui…
That sounds great, Hui:) I just realized I gave credit to Chandoo for the idea and I should have attributed it to you.
Sorry about that!
