Beginning SharePoint with Excel is for advanced Excel users who want to extend the usefulness of Excel by adding the collaborative features of SharePoint.

It's for those who regularly use Excel in enterprise business environments and who want to leverage the power and capabilities of SharePoint.

Authors Gini Courter and Annette Marquis have authored over 22 books on Microsoft Office and are partners in a business application consulting firm. In this book, they provide easy-to-implement examples of powerful business solutions. And they take care to explore the interaction between Excel and SharePoint. They also include resources and add-ons that extend SharePoint and Excel features.

This review is from: Beginning SharePoint with Excel: From Novice to Professional (Paperback)

Excel users who want to work with SharePoint's special features will find Beginning SharePoint with Excel the perfect starting point: it's the first to focus exclusively on SharePoint and how it interacts with Excel, and one of the few to use real-world business problems and applications as examples. Chapters use charts, gray sidebars of details, and scales along with assigned 'projects' as examples to get users accustomed to SharePoint's strengths.
