Editorial Reviews

Review

From the reviews:

"The style of the book is very didactic. The book is best used as a step-by-step guide for performing all the operations needed to present data in a consistent way. Each chapter is full of figures and screen shots that support the topic being explained … which makes it very easy to reproduce them. … This book will be invaluable to any reader who is not an information technology (IT) professional, and could be asked … to present data in consistent way." (Andrea Paramithiotti, Computing Reviews, Vol. 50 (1), January, 2009)

More About the Author

I'm Debra Dalgleish, the owner and lead consultant at Contextures, a consulting firm located in Mississauga, Ontario, Canada, specializing in Microsoft Office programming and development, and serving local and international clients.

My website -- www.contextures.com -- is packed with Excel tips, Excel tutorials, and Excel video tutorials, like the one shown here.
My Excel blog -- blog.contextures.com -- features Excel tips and tricks, and a few related topics.
My pivot table blog -- www.pivot-table.com -- has Excel pivot table tips and tutorials.

I've written three books on Excel pivot tables, available here at Amazon:

* Beginning Pivot Tables in Excel 2007
* Excel 2007 Pivot Tables Recipes
* Excel Pivot Tables Recipe Book

Self-employed since 1985, I started by doing word processing on a Macintosh (upgraded to 512K), with an external floppy drive, and no hard drive. The first two programs that I used were MacPaint and MacWrite. Soon I got MultiPlan and Microsoft Word, and was excited by all the new things they could do.

The next big program I got was Excel, and I expanded my business into that area. In the mid 90s, when Windows 3.1 was released, I gradually switched to a PC, because that's what my clients were using. I did computer training, wrote training manuals, continued with word processing, and created spreadsheets.

In 1996 I was asked to teach an introductory course in Access 2.0, so I learned that too. At the end of that year I created my first database for a client. Since then, we've converted the database to newer versions, but it's still going strong!

Currently my work load is about 40% Excel programming, 40% Access development, and 20% other Microsoft Office projects, such as Word and PowerPoint. A few clients still use Office 2000, a few have upgraded to Office 2007, and the rest use Office XP or Office 2003.
