5.0 out of 5 stars Shelly Cashman series outdoes itself!, February 3, 2005

This review is from: Microsoft Office Excel 2003: Comprehensive Concepts and Techniques (Paperback)

I had been using the Excel 2002 version of this book since last June...but when I recently upgraded to Office 2003, I wanted to upgrade to this version of book right away. I am not disappointed either. Within this book there are features such as Other Ways of doing things, such as opening Excel; other sidebar studies; more features to work with; more online materials, including links to Microsoft's free online courses. In this way...you can study only what was covered in the project. I really like the step by step pictures so I can make sure that I am doing everything right. Highly recommended! Just when I thought the Excel 2002 version was a great buy...along came Excel 2003! Good luck finding anything else comparable! I just got the best book I could get to supplement my certification training!

5.0 out of 5 stars College textbook for use forever!, September 21, 2007

By	M. Mustafa "Uniquemom" (Lake Villa, IL) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I purchased this book for my college Excel class - if you actually do the work contained therein, you will learn Excel! Also, it goes step by step - and the little steps are easy. The best way is to be working on excel as you read and do the projects - I am learning so much! FInally, I was one that bought books, took classes, and own the entire Video Professor Library (good product as well) but didn't retain the info I learned 10 seconds after I left. This is different. I will keep this book for reference long after my class is done.
